Dzifa Gunu, CEO of Ghana Digital Centres, has sparked a heated debate by questioning Goldbod’s decision to sponsor journalist Nana Aba Anamoa, a media personality who allegedly campaigned vigorously against President Mahama throughout 2024.
Leading up to the general elections, Anamoah was alleged to have been a vocal critic of the Mahama administration.
Her opposition went beyond policy disagreements; she famously mobilized children on television to label him the “Dumsor King.”
Now, under a Mahama-led government, she has secured corporate sponsorship for her show. Gunu is questioning the optics of this deal for those with long memories.
”We politicians have a very strong memory of what our opponents inflict on us.
We don’t easily forget, and we hardly forgive political sins,” Gunu stated.
Her critique was direct: “I wonder how Nana Aba Anamoah feels when she juxtaposes her past comments with the support she is receiving today from the John Dramani Mahama government the same government she once disparaged.”
Beyond the journalist, Gunu addressed party loyalists who are viewing these developments with growing frustration.
”Every foot soldier or party member speaking up now is justified.
Our members labored immensely to get us here.
That suffering must be at the forefront of our minds when we make certain decisions,” he added.
Acknowledging the potential backlash, Gunu remained firm: “I will definitely earn a few dislikes for this post, but I have to say what needs to be said.”
At its core, Gunu’s message serves as a reminder of loyalty, political memory, and the tension between rewarding allies versus accommodating former critics.
