The Mosquito General has bitten more than he can chew
By James Mckeown Listen to article
Today’s hearing, which was about cross-examination of Asiedu Nketia (General Mosquito) by Lawyer for Nana Akufo-Addo, Akoto Ampaw was quite momentous. Looking at what happened yesterday and the humour Asiedu Nketia’s cross-examination generated in the social media space, I didn’t expect anything different today.
The National Science and Maths Quiz approach adopted by general Mosquito in using his calculator in court was indeed epic. Generally, Asiedu Nketia, as expected was evasive in his responses to the questions posed to him, a behaviour reminiscent of what we saw of him in the 2013 presidential election petition hearing. Indeed, he provides a great and quality sense of humour to the political space.
