Controversial entertainment personality, Nana Asiamah Hanson, also known as Bulldog has been fined GH¢48,000 for threatening President Akufo-Addo over the Menzgold Saga.
Bulldog was dragged to court in 2021 after he indicated during an interview on UTV that President Nana Addo Akufo-Addo will not finish his four-year tenure if he failed to pay Menzgold customers.
The popular artiste manager was charged with offensive conduct to the breach of the peace.
In the two years of the trial, Bulldog pleaded not guilty to the charge insisting he never intended to threaten the president. He claimed that he only appealed to the President to intervene in the interest of customers of Menzgold.
But Coalition of Aggrieved customers of MenzGold (CACM) says the judgement by the presiding Judge, Justice Evelyn Asamoah on the artiste manager to pay a fine of GHC48,000 is quite harsh.
“Whilst we do not endorse act that seeks to pervert peace and safety of our Respected President of the Republic, a fine of GHC48,000 against Lawrence Nana Asiamah Hanson aka Bullgod on his comments relating to our locked up investment in Menzgold is quite harsher . For an aggrieved customer who appeared frustrated and sought to ventilate his views (however misnomer it may be) at the system to be treated with this high handedness of the state is quiet strange.
Bullgod is made a double victim by this ruling.
This is a product of dysfunctional democracy where leaders and duty bearers such as Executives, Parliament and Judiciary have stopped working in the interest of the owners of the democracy especially the vulnerable”.
The very Court that is finding it difficult to press lawable charges against Nam1 for the past 4 years hurriedly find it expedient to handing down fines against a victim of Menzgold?
Nearly 200 customers have died but our Parliament and Executives are all silent on it and the judiciary has not taken notice of this catastrophe either.
Nam1 will be emboldened with his gun waiting for customers at the confiscated trassaco house
what a Ghana!
