“Someone should tell Richard Jakpa that the power he’s enjoying in the NDC government won’t be forever” – Wofa Kofi Appiah of Kessben FM warns Richard Jakpa
Wofa Kofi Appiah, a prominent journalist with Kessben FM, has issued a stern warning to Richard Jakpa, a figure associated with the National Democratic Congress (NDC), in the wake of a controversial raid on the home of former Bank of Ghana (BoG) Governor Ernest Addison.
Wofa Appiah, known for his candid commentary on national issues speaking on Thursday’s edition of the Kessben Maakye show with KOD, stressed that “Someone should tell Richard Jakpa that the power he’s enjoying in the NDC government won’t be forever.” His remarks came after Jakpa, along with a group of armed men, allegedly led an attack on Addison’s residence.
The incident, which has sparked outrage and debate across Ghana, involves the reported storming of Ernest Addison’s home by Jakpa and his associates.
Wofa Kofi Appiah’s public remarks aimed at Richard Jakpa have drawn attention to the risks of overstepping one’s bounds in the face of political power. Speaking on his radio show, Appiah warned Jakpa that power is not eternal, especially when misused. He cautioned that no one, no matter how influential, is immune from accountability, especially in cases of violence and intimidation.
The incident that triggered Appiah’s comments occurred when Richard Jakpa, a controversial figure within the NDC, allegedly led a group of armed men to raid Ernest Addison’s private residence. While the full details of the raid are still emerging, reports suggest that the attackers confronted Addison and his family with force. Eyewitnesses described the scene as chaotic, with the armed men reportedly demanding information and causing distress within the household.
Ernest Addison, has not publicly commented on the event. However, the raid has attracted widespread condemnation from across the political spectrum. Many see the act as an example of unchecked power, with some critics fearing that such behavior could set a dangerous precedent for future political disputes.
