In a humorous yet subtly assertive exchange, Energy Minister Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, affectionately known as Napo, has called out Ghanaian comedian OB Amponsah for using his name during a recent comedy show — and not cutting him in on the profits.
Speaking to the media, Napo remarked, “If somebody who is a comedian is using my name and he is filling halls, I am very happy.
“I thank him because he is putting my name out there for free. But I will let my lawyers write to him so that we share the proceeds, the revenue, because I am unemployed.”
While the minister may not actually be sending any legal letters, his tongue-in-cheek demand highlights a growing trend: politicians becoming part of pop culture, whether intentionally or not.
OB Amponsah, known for cleverly weaving political figures into his punchlines, has frequently mentioned Napo in his shows — with the audience often roaring in approval.
Dr. Prempeh, however, appears to be taking it in stride — embracing the comic publicity while cheekily suggesting that his name has become a hot brand worth billing.
