Joyce Bawah Mogtari, the Presidential Adviser and cousin of President John Mahama, has come under intense scrutiny from netizens, who have taken to social media to express their disapproval of her recent comments.
Joyce Mogtari, known for her outspoken nature, has been accused of being emotionally unintelligent and intolerant by her critics.
The controversy began when Mogtari responded to criticisms from members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), stating that she had nothing useful to add to their comments.
Her response was seen as dismissive and arrogant by some, who felt that she was not taking their concerns seriously.
Netizens were quick to point out Mogtari’s perceived hypocrisy, citing instances where she had been critical of the NPP and its members, particularly former Second Lady, Samira Bawumia.
Some accused her of being fixated on Samira Bawumia, suggesting that she was in competition with the former Second Lady.
Joyce Mogtari’s supporters, however, have come to her defense, arguing that she is being unfairly targeted by the NPP and its supporters.
They point out that she has been a vocal critic of the NPP’s policies and actions, and that her comments are simply a reflection of her commitment to the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and its values.
The controversy surrounding Mogtari’s comments has sparked a wider debate about the role of social media in politics and the nature of online discourse.
While some argue that social media provides a valuable platform for politicians and citizens to engage with each other, others contend that it can also be a breeding ground for hate speech and personal attacks.
