You want to break the 8 with this arrogant and phony attitude – Coach Opeele on NAPO’s dumsor comments

Former coach of Kumasi Asante Kotoko, Isaac Adade Opeele Boateng, also known as Coach Opeele, expressed bewilderment at the comments made by Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, the Minister of Energy, regarding the current power situation in the country.

The former assistant coach of the national U-17 team was surprised by the remarks made by the minister, commonly referred to as NAPO, on Monday, March 25, 2024.

Taking to his X (formerly Twitter) account to react, Coach Opeele posted, “I am speechless! SMH.”

In a subsequent tweet, Coach Opeele cautioned the New Patriotic Party (NPP) about the potential consequences if their members are not disciplined.

Known for his vocal support of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the NPP flagbearer, Coach Opeele emphasized that “arrogance and self-aggrandizement” could hinder the NPP’s chances of success in the upcoming elections.

“Phony, unaccountable, untrustworthy and arrogant attitudes would not break the 8. NPP UNEXPECTEDLY won power from the NDC in 2016 and proclaimed, ‘Ghanaians are not fools. In 2024, Ghanaians won’t be fools to vote for a display of arrogance and self-aggrandisement! Be humble,” he stated.

Coach Opeele’s remarks come in response to statements made by the Minister of Energy, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, suggesting that Ghanaians requesting a load-shedding timetable should devise one themselves.

In a seemingly lighthearted response to a journalist’s question, captured in a video shared by JoyNews on X, the minister expressed his belief that there is no necessity for a timetable when the power distributor claims that the current situation in the country does not warrant one.

“Ask those who want it to bring it, if there is one. I haven’t seen any timetable,” he stated.

Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh had earlier denied that the country has returned to the days of dumsor, as the erratic power supply in the country under John Dramani Mahama was referred to.

“If we are comparing four years, four years, NPP administration’s energy sector is 300 times better than John Mahama… it’s far much better than John Mahama ever did…

“I’ve promised you that we are going to work on it and it’s not a work that is a single event; it’s a process, and we’ll continue to work on it for the energy sector to become better,” he stated.
