Ghanaian artist and politician, Kwame A Plus, has weighed in on the viral video showing the ransacked office of Minister for Communications Ursula Owusu-Ekuful after she lost the Ablekuma West seat in the 2024 parliamentary elections.
On his X account, A Plus, the MP-elect for Gomoa Central, noted that he believed that Mrs Owusu-Ekuful, the current Ablekuma West MP, was behind the attack on her office and residence.
Analyzing the situation, the Independent Candidate noted that it could have been a ploy to gain sympathy from her constituents and Ghanaians.
“Ursula Owusu could very well be behind the alleged attacks on her office and residence! It wouldn’t be surprising if it were a ploy to tarnish the NDC’s image and gain sympathy.”

A Plus noted that after eight years of serving as the Minister of Communications and if her office and residence lacked CCTV cameras, it said a lot.
He stated that it further went on to show the kind of associates that the outgoing President, Akufo-Addo, worked with, adding that, they were more focused on theatrics than substance.
Meanwhile, the Ghana Police Service has begun investigations into the alleged attack on Ursula at her residence and office.
Ghanaians reacted to A Plus’ take on Ursula’s office and residence ransacked by unknown persons.

A Plus Questions President’s ‘No Official Vehicle Purchase’ Directive
A Plus, the Member of Parliament-elect for Gomoa Central, raised concerns about President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s commitment to ensuring that his appointees comply with his directive to hand over official vehicles to the state.
In a statement issued on December 11, 2024, President Akufo-Addo reminded all his appointees that they had no right to keep the official vehicles assigned to them.
The appointees have been given until January 3, 2025, to return these vehicles to the chief director of the ministries and agencies they represent.
However, A Plus expressed skepticism about whether the President would follow through with his directive. He questioned whether Akufo-Addo could be trusted to ensure that his appointees would actually adhere to the order.
“I don’t trust Akufo-Addo, and I’m not sure he will ensure that his people comply with this directive. A president who lied about the Galamsey fight can never be trusted.”
A Plus
He further emphasized that he believes the directive may only apply to those appointees who are not closely connected to the President.
A Plus suggested that the directive could be a way to ensure that those with closer ties to Akufo-Addo are allowed to keep their vehicles, while those on the periphery are made to return them.
According to A Plus, this could be an attempt to redistribute the vehicles among Akufo-Addo’s inner circle.
A Plus’s remarks reflect a growing sense of disillusionment with the President’s leadership, especially regarding his administration’s promises and commitments.
A Plus has been a vocal critic of the President in the past, and this latest comment underscores his continuing dissatisfaction with the way Akufo-Addo has handled key issues such as Galamsey, as well as his trust in the President’s ability to enforce such directives.
A Plus’s questioning of the President’s integrity over the vehicle directive is part of a broader sentiment of frustration with the government’s handling of certain issues.
The ongoing unrest over the management of state resources, as well as the challenges surrounding corruption and accountability, continue to shape the political landscape in Ghana as the country prepares for the transition to a new administration.
With only a few weeks remaining in President Akufo-Addo’s term, the political climate in Ghana is one of both anticipation and reflection, as citizens and political figures alike evaluate the impact of the outgoing administration.
