Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko, a leading member of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) says he’s not worried over constant insults hurled at him on Twitter.
Speaking on Asaase Radio, the man who first hinted government’s intention to go to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for a bail out, said he’s only focused on getting his tweets across and only looks at the brighter side of his tweets which includes the impression, likes and retweets.
“I’m just a social commentator who when he has something to say he goes on Twitter. A question was asked that Gabby now all the insults you get on Twittter why do you still tweet.
And I said I have about 450,000followers on Twitter. When I tweet I will have maybe 70, 90 people replying and 90% of them will insult me. I don’t look at those who insult me, I won’t even respond to them. I look at those who like what I tweet, those who retweet and those who will see it and not comment. At least my word has got to them but not those who are waiting…Even when I tweet about Arsenal they will insult me and say I should go and tell my uncle. I’m not worried about those”.
Gabby has been under fire for defending government’s decision to go to the IMF.
He had claimed that the decision is as a results of the E-levy not realising its full potential. He balmed the opposition NDC who he accused of dragging the processes to implement the E-levy on time.
