Rapper Medikal has come to the president Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s defense, arguing that the latter is doing everything in his power to end the nation’s economic problems.
According to Medikal, he is slow to judge or rebuke president Akufo-Addo because “he is somebody’s father” adding that “maybe he’s trying his best to solve the crisis but things are not that easy on his side.”
The “Omo ada” hitmaker said in an interview with Abeiku Santana in January 2023 that, despite sharing some of the effects of the current economic crisis, he (Medikal) would not be hasty to place all the responsibility on the government.
“I am equally faced with the hardship in this country but I feel like, I am not sure the president is happy with how things are going. I feel he can do better but maybe he’s trying his best to solve the crisis but things are not that easy on his side.
“I feel like the president is indeed not happy about how things are going. It is not the case that I am also not feeling the heat or witnessing what Ghanaians are going through. I see that but I don’t think the president is wicked or evil at heart to watch his people suffer,” he explained.
However, Medikal provided explanations for why he hasn’t joined the long list of famous people who have criticized the “bad performance” of the current administration.
“I won’t condemn him because he is somebody’s father and I won’t go condemning him and asking why he’s not doing this or that. For all you know, he is really trying his best…they will tell you that it is an economic crisis. That is beyond you and me, we can’t do nothing about it,” he disclosed in the interview monitored by GhanaWeb.
