Pressure group, Alliance for Accountable Governance is calling on Johnson Asiedu Nketia, the General Secretary of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC), to apologize to Ghanaians for \u201chumiliating the country\u201d after admitting he wore\u00a0his wife\u2019s fur coat on an official trip to Germany.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”WTHHnomU8Vbw7K1XYVR9w7L0h4cgSgM0″]Mr Johnson Asiedu Nketia popularly\u00a0called General Mosquito was trending on social media with many users mocking him for wearing a woman\u2019s coat<\/strong><\/a><\/span>\u00a0when he traveled\u00a0with President John Dramani Mahama to Germany.<\/p>\n

Mr Asiedu Nketia has admitted wearing his wive’s brown fur coat but insisted he did not embark on a fashion trip, hence, the debate over why he chose to wear it is simply unnecessary.<\/p>\n

“We went\u00a0for brain work, not a fashion show. We were\u00a0going to use our brains to help the country, not that we were\u00a0going to showcase our attire at a fashion show,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\"asiedu<\/a><\/p>\n

AFAG however blamed President Mahama for allowing the General Secretary to \u201cwillfully subject the good people of this country to such great humiliation.\u201d<\/p>\n

The group also questioned why the General Mosquito remained with the President\u2019s entourage \u201cfor the entire period of his\u00a0visit without returning him to Ghana to show leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis would have detached government and the good people of Ghana from this all time embarrassing feat chalked by no mean a person than the general secretary of a ruling party,\u201d a press release from the group stated.<\/p>\n

\u201cMr. President, your national chairman’s behavior is bad example, a mockery to the separation of government in power to party, and a precursor to weakening of state institutions. This is a terrible legacy we advice you not to associate yourself with,\u201d they added.<\/p>\n

\"nkkk\"<\/a><\/p>\n

They however called on President Mahama to compel General Mosquito to apologize saying \u201cwe demand an unqualified apology from government and the NDC general secretary for embarrassing Ghanaians.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Member of Parliament for North Tongu, Samuel Ablakwa has said Mr Asiedu Nketia should be commended because wearing his wife’s coat shows how romantic he is.<\/p>\n
