The Managing Editor of the Insight newspaper, Kwesi Pratt Jnr has slammed George Andah for making ‘discriminatory’ comments against his close contender Madam Hannah Tetteh.
The New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) parliamentary Candidate for the Awutu Senya West constituency, George Andah threw a challenge to the NDC candidate and Minister of Foreign Affairs to produce her husband.
Mr Andah at a mini rally at Bawjiase in the Central region invited his wife to the stage and introduced her to party supporters; who had gathered at the rally amidst cheers and applauds.
“I came here with my wife, and children. Please tell Hanna to also come and show us her husband,” he said.
Kwesi Pratt Jnr, speaking to the issue during a panel discussion on Radio Gold’s Alhaji and Alhaji, described the comments as discriminatory and unfair especially to women who are divorced or not married.
According to him, “we know that she (Hannah Tetteh) is divorced: are we saying that women who have divorced have no rights to take part in politics, are we going to discriminate against divorcees…I am so so disgusted….Are we saying that women who are not married are hopeless? So if a woman is not married she is useless? You can disagree with her…but to attack her that she cannot produce a husband…I feel shocked and sad because I had a lot of respect for George Andah, I think he is one of the finest…so I am so shocked that this fine gentleman has sank to this this level. What degeneration? Is this the level that our politics is sinking into? I feel terrible about this”

So you were never disgusted when the president said that Nana Addo would do stool chiefs that do not side within. On the same platform that you made us know how disgusted you were Omane Boamah supported the president on that unfortunate talk but you never got disgusted in any of those. What at all is Kwasi seeing in the current administration that we are not seeing. If there is chop chop behind your demeanor you will surely pay back bcos the ordinary ghanaian is not a ***barred word***.
Produce your husband is not an insult Mr. Pratt. I think you are senior journalist so kindly stop those campaign for ndc
ONLY HYPOCRITES WOULD CASTIGATE MR. PRATT FOR WHAT HE SAID.IF WE CONTINUE TO WEAR POLITICAL LENSES ON EVERY ISSUE,THESE KIND OF ATTITUDE AND CHARACTERS WOULD FOREVER REMAIN WITH US.SO SOMEBODY SAID SOMETHING AND UNCLE KWESI PRATT DID NOT COMMENT, IT DOES NOT MEAN A PERSON HE RESPECTS SO MUCH GOES OFF THE TRACK HE SHOULD NOT COMMENT ABOUT IT.
I WONDER IF KWASI PRATT IS IN THIS COUNTRY WHEN THE PRESIDENT OF THIS COUNTRY STOOD ON POLITICAL PLATFORMS AND CASTIGATE SO MANY INSULT AND UNINTELLIGENT ACCUSATION ON NANA AKUFFO ADDO. I TEND TO BELIEVE KWASI PRAT IS A PUPPET USED BY THE NDC GOVERNMENT.
My man when your defending woman is arrogant and disrespectful thats the outcome,anyway 90% Of WOMEN sacked by their men are ***barred word*** all thing being equal. Eii Kwasi Pratt ,so you are one of the Ghanaians with short memory or acting out of s*tu*pid*ity. Hypocrite Kwasi Pratt You are far my Senior and you were definitely in Ghana during the 1979 General Election,have you forgotten one of the reasons Mr.Victor Owusu the President who never was, lost the election to Unknown Dr.Hilla Limann was just because he was a Single man? I was a small boy but quite remember the adverts of Hilla Limann, Paa WILLIE with their wives in the newspapers and then one and only GBC TV: Please always be objective to yourself,and remember not all Ghanaians have short memories or s*t*up*id as you,I*D*IO*T:iT IS NOT THE FIRST AND WILL NOT BE THE LAST AS FAR AS WE ARE AFRICANS: MARRIAGE IS THE FOUNDATION OF OUR LIVING:DEMOCRACY IS NOT WESTERNIZATION.
Mr Pratt why the selectivity. In as much as Mr Andahs comments were inappropriate, we have all said so. We have also heard the president talk about destoolment of chiefs with infringes on the constitutional provisions. You have conveniently chosen silence over that but get disgusted about Andahs low punch? Yoo
Kwesi Pratt, you didn't comment on what Hannah Tetteh had said that triggered this response from Mr Andah. Why are you being so unfair and partial? Talk for your CPP, Sir. They need your advocacy. Your stomach has made you defender of NDC. Wow
You will be "disgusted"; stomach journalist, ***barred word*** Pratt. did Andah mention that Hannah Tetteh was divorced? ***barred word*** Pratt sucks.
what about the distoolment of chiefs that JM says Nana will do.Kwasi, dont you find that worthy to discuss? massa madwene ho a ment3ase. meteas3 a enye yie!!!
Did you ask or consider this same statement when you told Wikileaks that anytime you went to Nana's house, you see smoke gushing out of his rooms like charcoal chimney? I shudder to think the kind of person and traitor you are!
