‘Presidency not for short people’ comment a figure of speech – NDC

The campaign spokesperson for the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC), Joyce Bawah Mogtari says a comment made by Sports Minister mocking the height of the New Patriotic Party’s presidential candidate was a figure of speech.
Nii Lante Vanderpuye told crowds at the campaign launch of the NDC in the Central Region over the weekend that “the presidency is not for short people.”
His comments have been swiftly condemned by a section of the public. Some supporters of the NPP have asked that he retracts the statement and apologises to Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.Nii Lante Vanderpuye

The Sports Minister's comments departed markedly from admonition President John Mahama to supporters of the NDC and other parties to wage a campaign deviod of insults and violence.

Bulldog has spoken out on his acrimonious break-up with former top act Shatta Wale, who he managed for years until they abruptly ended their relationship. The whole messy break-up was interspersed with threats of violence and exposing nude photos and the like. Speaking on Hitz Fm Wednesday, Bulldog revealed that contrary to most reports, the break-up had nothing to do with money, but instead with the threats Shatta Wale made against his wife. Bulldog said when he heard Shatta Wale was threatening to release the nude photos of his wife, he knew at that point that their working relationship was over.“At the time, I had gotten information that he had my wife’s naked picture and that’s not a joke… The only reason I broke up with Shatta was my family; nothing else. I’m not money conscious. I have worked with people for free” he said. Bulldog said he just wants to set the record straight about the split. Source: ghanacelebrities.com
