Woman reportedly arrested for wishing Akufo-Addo dead

A woman in her 40s has reportedly been arrested for wishing President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo dead in a viral video.

A source close to GhanaWeb indicated that the woman, who is from the Ablekuma North Constituency in Accra, is currently being held at the Headquarters of the Ghana Police Service.

In the said viral video, which was sighted by GhanaWeb, the woman, who was berating the president for the current economic conditions in the country, questioned why witches and ritualists from the northern parts of Ghana have not killed the president yet.

"Akufo-Addo, we are begging you in the name of God; we cannot even afford pots to cook our food. Do you want us to use your head to cook? 

"Now the price of an aluminium cooking pot has increased from 6 million (GHC600) to 12 million (GHC1200). Why?

"God will punish you. Can't you kill this man, Ghanaian witches and northern ritualists? I have four children; do you know the feeding fees I pay? Do you know the feeding fee, I am going to pay today... Idiot," she said in Twi.
