Leila Djansi descends on Gov’t communicator Halidu
Internationally acclaimed Ghana movie maker, Leila Djansi, has likened government communications team member, Alhaji Haruna Halidu, to an emasculated “coward” who is “afraid of outspoken women” and hiding behind “abusive words to take back his power”. The government communicator recently referred to unmarried female Ghanaian celebrities above the age of 30 as “irresponsible” and “prostitutes”. Yvonne Nelson, Lydia Forson and Sarkodie, on social media, have been leading the #DumsorMustStop campaign to get President John Mahama and his government to fix the current energy crisis. The former aide to the Chief of Staff, upset about the controversies the campaign had generated, took a swipe at the female celebrities who were vocal and somewhat scathing in their comments. But the award-winning director who falls above 30 said she “feels” Halidu’s “pain” given strong women like herself, Nelson and Forson make him “doubt the strength of your loins perhaps”. Read the portion of Leila’s blog in which she directly addresses Halidu below: You are rendered insecure by an independent woman. One you can only admire from a distance but cannot under any circumstances speak to, because, she is above you. That must hurt. You know a woman like that will take you out and spend HER money on you and that takes away from your manly pride. You know a woman like that will hit you back if you hit her. Yow a woman like that can LEAVE anytime she wants! You know her voice is louder than yours. Does her gait make you insecure? Do her breasts make you doubt your manliness? Does her satiny skin make you cower in shame and fright at the callousness of yours? Does her hair make you tremble from desires that cannot be granted? Must be very annoying you cannot put a bridle on her like a horse, and have her plow where you lead, or a ring in her nose like a cow and control the number of paces she takes. I feel your pain There is only one word out there that describes you. COWARD. Stop hiding behind abuse to belittle a woman. Stop hiding behind foul words. Might you doubt the strength of your loins perhaps? That’s an easy fix – look for confidence. It fixes a lot of problems. A real man is never afraid of an outspoken woman. Neither does he abuse her, to take back his power. A real man revels in the knowledge of a woman. He allows her walk ahead of him. He doesn’t try to take her shine because a real man knows that if a woman shines, so does he. A real man is not afraid to tap into his feminine side. He is not afraid of being sensitive. It takes a man, a courageous man to have sensitivity, emotion. A weak man, like you, however, prefers his woman to not have a voice but borrow his. A weak man prefers a needy woman, who crawls to him for every dime and dollar, her need makes him feel like man. A weak man looks for a woman HE can take care off and brag on that, because that is all he has going for him. Only weak men see attitude. Only weak mean fear the voice of a woman. I get it. Times have changed and men are just not being given their due anymore. Women now work, hold great positions, rule nations, choose to have babies via CS, choose to NOT have children, choose to NOT be glorified housemaids, Choose high levels of education and choose daring careers like….acting. Whew. you must be upset! It’s unfortunate you are not man enough to handle a small chiding a young girl gave you and you resorted to temper tantrums, stamping your feet, shaking your fists and foaming at the mouth. Shame! Mr, you better call ya mama and apologize to her. She raised a brat. If John Mahama does not get rid of this man, I will be very disappointed in any woman who votes for NDC. I will go from village to village in the Volta and tell the women NDC executives say us women, are whores. At the end of the day, this man represents the general mindset of most Ghanaians: If you are confronted with the truth, attack it, to make it irrelevant. That’s weak. By the way, Halidu Haruna, you give Moslems a bad name.
