Deputy Communications Director of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), Maame Afia Akoto, has criticized politician Hopeson Adorye’s recent statements as nonsensical.
She believes Mr. Adorye is merely toying with Ghanaians.
Hopeson Adorye, a leading member of Alan Kyerematen’s Movement for Change (M4C), was arrested on May 22, 2024, for spreading false information.

Mr. Adorye claimed that the NPP instructed him to detonate dynamites in the Volta Region.
His statements about detonating dynamite during the 2016 elections, initially said to have occurred in the Volta Region but later clarified as happening in Togo, led to his detention.
In an interview on Adom FM’s morning show Dwaso Nsem, Maame Afia Akoto expressed disbelief at Mr. Adorye’s claims.
“Did you carry the dynamite? Why is he still alive if it was dynamite? Why can’t you even be truthful? Stop playing with us. You didn’t show you are old. There is no sense in what you said. I wonder why he still stood there when the dynamite struck. Is he a Superman?” she questioned.
She also questioned why the NDC, which was in power at the time, did not address the issue if it indeed involved dynamite to disrupt the election.
In her view, Mr. Adorye’s claims should be dismissed with the contempt they deserve.
