The Greater Accra Regional Minister, Nii Kwartei Titus Glover, has urged the Ga-Adangbe people to punish the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the upcoming elections, pointing directly at former President John Dramani Mahama's recent comments about the Ga community.

Speaking passionately at the Ga Mantse's Palace when New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, paid a courtesy call on Ga Mantse King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II, Titus Glover expressed his frustration over Mahama's words, calling them an insult to the intellect of the Ga-Adangbe people.

The comment in question was made during a campaign stop in the Ablekuma South Constituency, as Mahama interacted with NDC supporters while touring Greater Accra.

In a moment of candidness, Mahama questioned the rationale behind Dr. Bawumia's push for digitization across the country, suggesting that not all Ghanaians, particularly the Ga and Dangme people, needed such policies.

"They will digitalize the kenkey. Does that mean you will eat digitization?" Mahama said, continuing, "But I know, by the grace of God, we will not eat digital kenkey. We eat real kenkey and fried fish."

This remark, aimed at belittling the importance of digital transformation for some communities, has since ignited anger among Ga youth, who find the statement not only dismissive but immature.

Titus Glover, visibly agitated by Mahama's dismissive tone, made it clear that such remarks would not go unchallenged.

"The relevance of digitization is there for all to see," he stated, highlighting the significant role that technological advancements have played in connecting Ghana to the rest of the world.

He argued that digitization, spearheaded by Dr. Bawumia, is a necessary step toward modernizing the economy and advancing Ghana's position on the global stage.

"If you look at what digitization has done for the economy, how it's helping us connect globally, it's clear that it's a step in the right direction," Glover added, emphasizing the far-reaching benefits of digital policy.

The Ga-Adangbe people, a vital ethnic group in the Greater Accra region, were deeply offended by Mahama's comment.
