The emergence of a video depicting Former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia meeting with social media influencer Fante Comedy has ignited significant public discourse in Ghana. The encounter is controversial due to the influencer's history of making inflammatory statements, including a vow to persistently attack President John Dramani Mahama. This incident has prompted a national conversation about the responsibility of political leaders to model civility and the powerful influence digital creators wield in shaping political dialogue. Critics contend that such associations risk condoning harmful rhetoric, while supporters view it as simple encouragement.
