Kevin Taylor, an outspoken political pundit, has delivered a severe warning to members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) about the repercussions of John Dramani Mahama's expected inauguration as President of Ghana on January 7, 2025. Taylor's conviction-driven words elicited significant reactions across the political divide.
Taylor announced on his Loud Silence Media website that extreme measures would be implemented within 72 hours after Mahama's inauguration. He warned that young Ghanaians, fed up with corruption and mismanagement of public resources, would take matters into their own hands to recover what belongs to the state.
In his statement, Taylor said:
The corrupt NPP officials pay close attention because this is what will happen 72 hours after John Mahama takes office on January 7th: the nation's young will target anyone who has embezzled public funds and assets. John Mahama is powerless to stop us from stealing what is rightfully ours. Therefore, you don't have a problem, don't freak out, and live your life in comfort if you know that you haven't stolen any money from Ghana. However, you should notify the police and return the money or item if you know you are in possession of any national property or that you obtained it unlawfully using public funds. The young Ghanaians who paid taxes for you to misuse it will come after you."
Without holding back, Taylor named specific people he claimed were taking advantage of public funds. He accused Paul Adom Otchere of using public monies to buy expensive cars and Gabby Otchere-Darko of using state cash to build himself houses.
He said, "We will come and take your properties so you can come and explain how you got them with the work you are doing."
Political tensions have increased as a result of Taylor's vehement remarks; his admirers have praised his audacious stand against corruption, while his detractors have accused him of inciting others. His comments highlight how many Ghanaians are becoming increasingly irate over suspected corruption and poor management by public servants.
