This audio recording circulating on social media has a voice believed to be that of the Minister of Food and Agriculture, Dr. Owusu Afriyie Akoto expressing anger over the line of questioning by a journalist.<\/p>\n

The journalist had called him for a reaction to what Hilda Addo, a former Member of Parliament for Kwadaso had said about Dr Akoto.
\u00a0
Hilda Addo, a fierce opponent of Dr Akoto, himself also a former MP for Kwadaso was said to have alluded to Dr Akoto as \u201cincompetent\u201d and so the journalist had called\u00a0for a\u00a0reaction.<\/p>\n

But Dr Akoto interjected and heavily criticized the journalist for repeating the word \u2018incompetent.\u2019<\/p>\n

It is not certain when the audio was recorded, but the Vice President, Alhaji Dr Mahamudu Bawumia and his wife, Samira used the word \u201cincompetent\u201d a number of times during the 2016 campaign to describe former President John Mahama\u2019s administration.<\/p>\n
