The President of the Ghana Drunkards Association (GDA), Moses Onyeh, also known as Dry Bone, has announced that the Association has suspended the President of Ghana, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo, for a period of two weeks.
The suspension is aimed at reversing the President’s decision to increase taxes on alcohol. Dry Bone made this announcement during an appearance on TV XYZ’s political program, “the gumbe show.”
Dry Bone revealed that the President of Ghana is a bonafide member of the Association, as confirmed by the President himself during his inaugural speech. He stated that the President’s decision to increase taxes on alcohol was a betrayal to the Association, hence the suspension.
The suspension is expected to prevent the President from patronizing any alcoholic beverage during the Easter festivities.
“We suspend him for two weeks during which period we expect him to reverse the decision, failure to do so, we shall revoke his membership by withdrawing his licence,” said Dry Bone.
The GDA President further stated that the Association’s 10.6 million members could have decided to spoil their ballots in any elections or embark on a demonstration, but both ways would amount to wasting the scarce resources of the country and undermining national security. Therefore, the decision to suspend the proud member was made.
“Our 10.6 membership weighs more than any political party membership in Ghana, and if we decide to demonstrate or spoil ballots, it will go against the nation so we suspend the President,” he added.
