Gender advocate Alimatu Issahak has urged Ellen Ama Daaku, an aide to former Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, to exercise restraint in her public commentary.
Speaking to reporters, Madam Alimatu described Daaku’s recent remarks against government officials as “unguarded” and counterproductive.
“Ellen must peg herself. Her recent unguarded statements don’t help anybody, including herself,” she said.
Alimatu went further to question Daaku’s academic standing, asking: “Who does she think she is, and how did she end up in UPSA as a lecturer?”
She accused Daaku of consistently targeting senior government figures, including the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, stressing that such attacks damage political discourse and undermine Daaku’s own credibility.
Calling for greater responsibility in political communication, Alimatu said public figures must avoid comments that inflame tensions.
“Our national politics deserves civility and respect. Ellen must rise above insults and contribute constructively if she wants to be taken seriously,” she added.
