People are hurt, they didn’t vote for nothing – Agbemava on Sammy Gyamfi’s video

Prominent lawyer and NDC member Elikplim Agbemava has called for quick action. He wants party leaders to respond to a viral video. The video shows NDC National Communications Officer Sammy Gyamfi giving money to Nana Agradaa, a controversial religious figure.

Agbemava spoke on the Asaase Breakfast Show. He emphasized that this issue is not personal. “Those of us in sensitive positions must act responsibly,” he stated.

The video has sparked intense debate within the party and beyond. There are calls for accountability due to the NDC’s stance on transparency. Agbemava warned against ignoring such incidents, saying, “We cannot create a culture where actions go unchecked.”

He also discussed broader implications of the controversy. Agbemava expressed concern about political maturity among younger leaders. “If your first contact is power without life experience, lapses happen,” he said.

He added that people feel hurt by these actions. Some visible response is necessary so voters know their choices matter.
