In an unexpected twist to the ongoing scandal, CDM has criticised the conduct of Presidential Spokesperson Felix Kwakye Ofosu, describing his recent derogatory remarks towards Rev. Ntim Fordjour as “a stain on the dignity of the presidency.”

Mr. Ofosu had referred to Rev. Fordjour as a “clown” in a social media post, a move CDM says violates both Parliamentary ethics and public expectations. 

“This behaviour brings the presidency into disrepute and undermines civil discourse,” the group stated.

Citing Article 57 of the 1992 Constitution, CDM reminded Mr. Ofosu that he represents the unity of the nation and must embody the values of humility and statesmanship.

“We respectfully urge President John Dramani Mahama to call his appointee to order and affirm that insults and misinformation shall not be tolerated,” CDM concluded.
