Age five and above would require a mask. Masks would be removed for special activities like eating and drinking,\u201d he earlier stated in a discussion with Hitz fm\u2019s Andy Dosty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But analysing the numerous insults and criticisms Mr. Okraku Mantey has received from Ghanaians after making such statements, Yaw Wiredu has this to say during a discussion on Bloggers Forum;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt saddens my heart that Okraku-Mantey, who is one of our own has become a deputy minister and it looks like because he was part of our system, we tend to downplay the level of respect that should be given to his office. People will just get up and refer to Mark like he is their co-equal, a blogger can just say Mark was just a programmes head at HitzFM.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen things go wrong, they won\u2019t go for the full tape, listen to all his statements before passing judgements. He is a Deputy Minister for crying out loud. If he is going to be quoted, he has to be quoted properly. There is no respect for him. There are other politicians who say worse stuff but are spared but because of familiarity, everyone just gets up and disrespects Mark,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>Send your news stories to\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:dannyboy744@gmail.com\">dannyboy744@gmail.com<\/a>\u00a0and via WhatsApp on +233 266777777<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2022 Okraku Mantey must be regarded as a Minister, Yaw Wiredu to showbiz industry \u2022 Mr. Okraku Mantey is among the list of disrespected ministers in Ghana, Yaw Wiredu claims \u2022 Okraku Mantey is often misquoted by blogs and mistreated, Yaw Wiredu states Popular entertainment pundit cum Marketer, Nana Yaw Wiredu has bemoaned the manner [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":19509,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"iawp_total_views":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-32950","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-entertainment"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
