A revered figure in the history of Ghana, whose statue stands in the middle of Kumasi in the Ashanti Region Okomfo Anokye, has been adorned with the bright color of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), ahead of the upcoming general election on December 7, 2024. This action has led to a flurry of reactions from netizens calling for the removal of the NPP flag.
Okomfo Anokye who is known as the first priest of the Ashanti Empire is recognized for his participation in the expansion of the empire in the 17th century, stands as a beacon of cultural and historical importance in Ghana.

Celebrated for his spiritual leadership and pivotal role in the unification and growth of the Ashanti Kingdom.
However the decoration of his statue with the NPP flag has sparked controversy on X (formerly Twitter).

Many view the act as trying to politicize a well-loved historical monument, which has been traditionally regarded as a symbol of national heritage and not political allegiance.

Reactions on social media have been deeply polarized. Supporters of the NPP have defended the act, contending that it serves as a tribute to the party’s accomplishments and its contributions to national development.

Critics, however, have voiced their discontent, calling for the removal of the party colors from the statue. They contend that politicizing such symbols diminishes the respect and reverence they elicit.
