Prince David Osei apologises after 'insulting' Mahama

Controversial actor Prince David Osei has issued a public apology to supporters of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) following backlash over comments he made about President-elect John Dramani Mahama.

In a post on his Instagram page on December 10, 2024, Prince David Osei apologised for his comments and called for harmony among the populace.

“I deeply apologize if my words during the campaign offended anyone from the NDC. We were all focused on winning, but now let’s move forward and live in peace. God bless Ghana,” he wrote.

What happened?

It could be recalled that following Mahama’s victory in the 2024 presidential election, Osei, in a now-deleted post intended to congratulate the president-elect, stated that he himself would be president one day.

This post, however, was met with insults from some users who lambasted him for his comment.

An infuriated Osei, in response to one comment, labeled the commenter a “fool” and questioned why he couldn’t aspire to be president, suggesting even a “drunkard” had been elected.

The remarks were widely interpreted as an insult to Mahama, fueling anger among Ghanaians, particularly NDC supporters.
