Countrywide Communications Officer of the opposition NDC Sammy Gyamfi is dealing with backlash on social media more than a picture he posted on Twitter.
The photo, which can make reference to the murder of an African-American male, George Floyd, is in protest to the Electoral Commission’s compilation of a new voters’ roll.
The EC Chairperson Jean Mensa is witnessed in a cartoon kneeling on a e book placed on the neck of a handcuffed gentleman with President Akufo-Addo kneeling on the gentleman as effectively.

The firebrand politician, in response to the backlash, insists the post is not a mockery of the racist killing of George Floyd in the US.
Scores of responses to the post say the article must be taken down, but Mr. Gyamfi is adamant.
Sammy Gyamfi utilised this in protest of the new voters sign-up and it did not go very well, he defined the narrative this is not to mock George Floyd” but Sammy, you shouldn’t have made use of it at all cos how painfully George died in this manner will stirs in all fashion of anger regardless🤦🏿♂️ https://t.co/QE8Qynsl6p

The Flyer Sammy Gyamfi has posted can do us additional harm as a Country. Floyd’s problem should not be a a person to play with in any day.

You consider Sammy Gyamfi is correct to use someone’s distressing dying which has brought about the battle from racism to do petty politics cos racial injustice is the exact same as voters ID card registration.
