Peter Okwoche is known throughout Africa for asking very difficult questions that put African leaders in an awkward position. He has interviewed all the presidents of Ghana in the Fourth Republic, except the late President Rawlings.
In his most recent interview with the current President of Ghana, Nana Ado Dankwa Akufo-Ado, on Monday 4 April 2022, Okvoche asked some critical questions and made several statements that brought Nana Akufo-Ado to the brink. The Ghanaian leader appeared highly accusatory and very confrontational, even describing his question as provocative. Once again, social media was flooded with comments and reactions to the interview.
Some political commentators and communications experts have called this one of President Akufo-Ado's lowest-ranking interviews.
According to Peter, he suggested asking the question on behalf of the tomato seller at the market, who wanted to ask the President such a question but couldn't.
He insisted he was not a defender of any government and would continue to hold the government accountable.
