She said the same thing at Radio Gold that she will strip me naked and descend with me into the gutter; but suffice it to be said that I don\u2019t play in the gutters so if she does go there, she will meet her kind, but certainly not me.<\/p>\n<p>If she thinks I will take advice from her insulting behavior, then I\u2019m sorry\u2026 she is not my advisor so she should give it to those who listen to her.<\/p>\n<p>I only listen to good and productive counsel that will help me improve my work and benefit Ghanaians and women as a whole\u2026,\u201d she noted.<\/p>\n<p>While urging Dr. Hannah Bissiw to focus on the work at hand at her ministry, she added that it would be a pity if the Mills-led NDC government assessed the performance of their ministers by the level of insults they directed at their political opponents.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u2026that will be a poor standard of accessing performance\u2026the NDC should prove to the Ghanaian taxpayer that their taxes have not been wasted by reckless insults and needless attacks on personalities,\u201d she stated.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>From Morgan Owusu, Kumasi<\/em><\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/6c4df429nah_bissiw1.jpg-150x150.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Excerpt from:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Hannah Bissiw THE DEPUTY Minister of Water Resources, Works and Housing, Dr Hannah Louisa Bissiw, has lashed out at Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Presidential candidate for the 2012 elections, describing him as a \u201csexy old fool\u201d.
