Samini Tackles Akufo Addo on Social Media Over Hardship In Ghana

On social media, veteran Ghanaian dancehall musician Batman Samini takes aim at Ghana’s President Akufo Addo.

The artist, who was among the celebrities that pushed for Nana Akufo-Addo and his NPP administration to be re-elected for a second term in December 2020, is outraged by the country’s present economic situation.

Everyone in the country, Ghana, can feel the heat as things are not going as they should as the cedi continues to fall against major foreign currencies, making life in the country a living nightmare.

Samini, whose real name is Emmanuel Andrews Sammini and is set to release his impending song titled “Be Alright,” expressed his discontent with Akufo-Addo’s way of handling the nation’s economy on Sunday afternoon, October 23, 2012, via his Facebook page.

In his social media post, he said that his soul bleeds as he writes about how Nana Addo has failed to deliver on his promise of ensuring a better Ghana for all.

He addressed the Cedi’s poor performance versus the US dollar, informing the president that Ghanaians are in pain and cannot always pretend everything is well.

His statement is reproduced here.

“Dear @NAkufoAddo.I supported you to bring change and stability.
“I believed in the vision and your concept of change! But with 2 years to go, my soul bleeds. Our investments wash away daily as the dollar openly whips our Cedi. Your people are crying. We cannot pretend all is well. But “if God has blessed Ghana with anything, it is our ability to stare difficulty right in the face and say, it will #bealright 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾. Ghana must work again! Where is the Nana Addo who begged us for the mandate?
“The indiscipline in high and low places of government must be checked.
“We go keep hope alive and continue to soldier on. What’s a man without hope? We can only continue to pray for a better tomorrow. To all my high graders out there, I say it again ,
“we will #bealright!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥”.
