Prince Adjei advises youth to end the politics of insults
Prince Adjei, popularly known as Guy Gee, a member of Ken Agyapong’s campaign team, has called for an end to the growing culture of “dirty politics” and insults among political supporters, especially the youth on social media.
In a statement, he cautioned that the toxic exchange of insults and personal attacks between followers of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia and Hon. Ken Agyapong was undermining the moral fabric of the nation.
According to him, politics must be grounded in mutual respect, constructive engagement, and discipline rather than insults and abuse.
“Whether you are a Bawumia follower or a Ken follower, you must show decorum in your talks and utterances and not spew insults against Hon. Ken Agyapong or Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia..Because of dirty politics and politics of insults, some are now denigrating innocent families. This is not the Ghana we were raised in,” he added.
Prince Adjei lamented that Ghana, a country known for its deep sense of respect, morality, and religious values, was gradually losing its essence as political communication increasingly turns hostile. He reminded the public that the nation’s strength lies in its ability to maintain civility and uphold decency in public discourse, irrespective of political differences.
“Ghana is a country that prides itself on respect, morality, and religious values. For generations, we have upheld the belief that the elderly must be honoured, that public discourse must be dignified, and that disagreements should be handled with wisdom rather than hostility. Yet, in recent years, these foundational values have been trampled upon in the political space”, he said
He expressed concern that insults, mockery, and personal attacks have taken over issue-based debates, with the youth leading the trend. He urged young people to rather channel their energy into constructive dialogue and ideas that would advance national development.
“The most disturbing part of this phenomenon is that the youth are at the forefront. Our generation must not be remembered for destroying the spirit of respect and tolerance that our forebears built,” Guy Gee further stated.
