Following the appreciation of the Ghana cedi against the US dollar, Actor Prince David Osei has shelved his plans to host a demonstration against the government.
In a post on Twitter, Prince David who is known to support the NPP and President Akufo-Addo noted that the cedi is performing “remarkably” well.
For this reason, he believes that there is no need for a demonstration as earlier stated in his rants about the economy earlier in the year.
“Hallelujah the Cedi is appreciating remarkably. 9.56ghc to a 1$.. No more demonstrations remember I gave an ultimatum for December!!” Prince David Osei wrote.
In October 2022, the actor threatened the government that he would stage a non-partisan demonstration by December if the economic challenges continued.
In an Instagram post, the TV personality said even though the youth are investing their maximum efforts, they are still finding it difficult to make ends meet.
Given the situation, the actor expressed his disappointment in the current regime and warned that he will be part of a demonstration if the economic situation does not change for the better.
However, in his post on Wednesday, Prince David Osei said the economy, gradually, has seen an improvement as compared to the previous months.
However, DKB argues that the development isn’t worth celebrating since it hasn’t affected prices of goods and services are still stagnant.
“A reducing exchange rate with no correlating reduction on food prices and fuel prices is useless,” DKB said as a reply to the actor’s post and that graduated into an exchange between Prince David Osei and DKB.
“So would you have preferred the cedi went up to 20ghc per $ before the end of the year? We know we have issues as a country but let’s be hopeful for the small changes we seeing?” Prince David Osei told DKB and it did not end there.
DKB in his response jabbed Prince David Osei for still been bias towards to NPP government.
“You have no option but to celebrate small victories because you have committed to them and you owe allegiance. I don’t owe allegiance to any party, I talk for Ghanaians. Until prices reduce and cash burden on us goes down, we won’t celebrate any damn small Victories! Tueh!” DKB said.
