In a viral video circulating online, Akufo-Addo is seen gesturing for chiefs to stand up as he approaches them to offer greetings. Otoo expressed her disapproval of this action, stating that while the president deserves respect, he should not command chiefs to stand before greeting him.
“A president voted for by the country, with all the powers, and yet this short man thinks his respect is tied to chiefs standing to greet him,” Otoo remarked in a post on her social media platform.
