Presidential Staffer Nana Yaa Akyenpim Jantuah has dismissed comments by Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin suggesting she was "a nobody", insisting that she is a senior government official and assured the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) that its petition will be delivered directly to President John Mahama.
Nana Yaa Jantuah, a presidential staffer, firmly rejected the Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin's assertion that she is "a nobody". She clarified her status as a senior government official and assured that her NPP party's petition will reach President John Mahama. Jantuah made this announcement after receiving the petition during the NPP's "Democracy Under Attack" demonstration at Jubilee House on Thursday, August 6.
She expressed gratitude for the group's efforts and affirmed that the presentation of the petition affirmed Ghana's functional democracy. The NPP's demonstration aimed to present petitions to the country's three branches of government regarding governance concerns. Jantuah also reminded the NPP of the importance of respecting Ghana's laws and urged the public to reflect on the significance of the national memorial day for the eight Ghanaian lives lost in a helicopter crash.
