‘Calling Me Names Won’t Change a Thing’ – Nana Aba Responds to Criticism After Supporting Bawumia
Renowned media personality Nana Aba Anamoah has responded to critics who have lambasted her for supporting Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s anti-galamsey initiatives.
In a recent social media post, Nana Aba stood firm on her political views, asserting that personal attacks on her endorsement of the government’s efforts to combat illegal mining would not sway her stance.
Standing Firm Amidst Backlash
Nana Aba’s support for Dr. Bawumia’s initiatives has sparked a heated debate online. Critics have taken to social media to express their disapproval, with some accusing her of hypocrisy and being a stooge for the New Patriotic Party (NPP). Despite the backlash, she remains resolute, emphasizing her commitment to her opinions and her independence.
“I am not your stooge like some people,” she declared in her post. “Calling me names won’t change anything. If you’re hurt, get a stiff drink”
The controversy began when Nana Aba publicly endorsed the vice president’s proposals to tackle illegal mining, commonly known as galamsey. Her initial post ignited a flurry of reactions, with supporters praising her for taking a stand against the environmental degradation caused by galamsey, while detractors criticized her for aligning with the current administration.
Unwavering Commitment
In her response, she highlighted the importance of addressing the galamsey issue, which has long plagued Ghana’s environment and economy. She reiterated that her support for the anti-galamsey initiatives is rooted in her concern for the country’s future, not political allegiance.
“Illegal mining is a serious threat to our environment and our future,” she stated. “We must support efforts to combat it, regardless of political affiliations.”
Public Reactions
The public’s reaction to Nana Aba’s stance has been mixed. While some have applauded her for speaking out on a critical issue, others have questioned her motives and criticized her for supporting the government’s approach. Despite the polarized opinions, she remains undeterred, focusing on the broader goal of environmental preservation.
Nana Aba remains unmoved, stating that she stands by everything she posts and that personal attacks will not change her views.
