NDC mocks ‘chaos’ in government

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) says it has found yet another evidence giving credence to its oft-made claim of chaos in the Akufo-Addo-led government.

The evidence is the upside-down flag in a picture posted by Flagstaff House, the seat of government, during the short visit of Gambian leader Adama Barrow to President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.

The flag, hoisted just behind the Ghanaian president, had the green on top of the gold and red instead of the red, gold and green layout.

The NDC tweeted:

That the Ghana flag is turned upside down is yet another manifestation of the chaos in government pic.twitter.com/X52WmktKbs

The tweet generated a mixed reaction from followers. While some condemned the seeming disrespect for the national flag, others questioned the significance of such a criticism to national development.

Is a serious offense

One of those who not amused about NDC’s tweet produced an old picture of former president John Dramani Mahama seated in front of a similar wrongly hoisted flag.
