His remarks, shared on social media, mocked KOKA’s criticism of the Roads Minister and questioned his credibility as a political communicator.
In an official Facebook post on May 12, 2026, Bongo Ideas responded to KOKA’s description of the Roads Minister as the “father of TikTok.” He dismissed the comment as unserious and ridiculed KOKA’s frequent appearances on local television.
According to Bongo, KOKA often presents himself in ways that undermine his own credibility, likening his public persona to that of a “drunken herbalist” or a “fake pastor fighting invisible spirits.”
Bongo’s critique went further, suggesting that instead of spending time on small television platforms shouting, KOKA should join initiatives such as the One Million Coders Program to acquire knowledge and skills that could lead to meaningful employment.
He argued that such a path would fulfill the aspirations of KOKA’s family and contribute positively to society, rather than engaging in what he described as “volume without value.”
The post also contrasted KOKA’s criticisms with the performance of the Roads Minister, who Bongo credited with delivering visible projects in less than two years.
He pointed out that while the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) spent eight years perfecting “press conference choreography,” the current minister has been actively working to improve infrastructure.
For Bongo, this comparison highlighted the emptiness of opposition rhetoric when measured against tangible achievements.
Perhaps the sharpest jab came when Bongo mocked the NPP’s presidential candidate for expressing pride in such performances.
He questioned what exactly there was to be proud of, describing the opposition’s communication style as noise without substance.
In his words, the NPP has ceased to function as a serious opposition party and has instead become a “national entertainment group.”
The post has generated significant reactions online, with supporters praising Bongo for his boldness and critics accusing him of being unnecessarily harsh.
Regardless of perspective, his remarks underscore the intensity of Ghana’s political discourse, where satire and sharp language are often used to expose perceived weaknesses in opposition strategy.
Ultimately, Bongo’s intervention serves as a reminder that credibility in politics is not built on slogans or insults but on substance and delivery. His words challenge communicators like KOKA to rise above theatrics and contribute meaningfully to national dialogue.
