The General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress Johnson Asiedu Nketia has called for the Ghana@60 anniversary planning committee to be sanctioned for the concert by veteran actor Agya Koo and his colleagues during Ghana’s Independence Day celebration on March 6, 2017.
According Nketia, the performance by the veteran actor was highly ‘unnecessary’ and unneeded.
“They just wasted our time and it’s very inhuman for such to happen,” he told Neat FM in an interview.
Mr. Nketia said the idea to sideline the guest of honour, President Robert Mugabe, from delivering a speech was unfortunate.
“For the first time in the history of Ghana, our guest of honour for the occasion did not deliver any speech. None of them [other Presidents] even made a sentence on the day yet they brought Agya Koo for that concert,” he said.
He maintained that the handover ceremony from former President John Dramani Mahama to President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo was far more successful than the Ghana@60 anniversary celebration.

The Kumawood Performance on the 6th March Day was very embarrassing & disgraceful. If you are going to do something on such a stage invest time and knowledge. You don't come and embarrass yourselves as Agya Koo & his guys did. Where were the best industry players (Lilwin, Bill, Nana Amma, etc.). It was not well directed. Wrong is wrong and Asiedu Nketia is right this time. It was Ghana Independence Day with international gusts so you can't come and disgrace us and expect us to keep quiet.
If ur party had won u would have brought tracy, gloria kanu, dumelo, michael afrane, mr beautiful and others to do worse things than this just as the campaign advert tracy did for u acting like a ma##d woman which got nothing good, thank u that the handing over was better than this cos we wouldnt have allowed u people to misuse our money on this occasion so we want it as simple as this cos i see nothing disgraceful than putting a different person's name as the president of Ghana during previous independence celebration and even that one u saw nothing wrong with it. The behaviour os being in opposition
