OB Amponsah, a renowned standup comedian, in his interview on CNN African Voices intimated that he does not seek to malign any personality or a group of persons with his craft, but added that there is the need to accommodate humour. They say you don’t play with some stuff like politics, religion; those things that people take very seriously but that’s just me. I feel like comedy is comedy and jokes are jokes. In his interview with GhanaWeb, he recalled how he was traumatized by the insults and threats on his life. In January 2020, the optometrist cum comedian staged a comedy show dubbed ‘Political Refugee’.
