The Ghanaian man who was seen on top of Obetsebi Lamptey’s statue in a possible suicide attempt has claimed that he pulled that stunt to send a message to Ghanaians and the government of the day in particular.
According to him, there’s too much pressure in the country which is becoming overbearing for the youth, especially the one propagated by the society to push some men to marry by force.
Report say the man climbed the 20-foot statue with a ladder with the help by two other men.
A joint effort by the Police and Fire Service rescued the man and was handcuffed and whisked away.
The man who identified himself as Dr Think Twice spoke before taken to the Police station said; “I am the one that handles pressure in the country. Listen to me very well, if you heard about Dr Think twice, I’m the one… I’ve appeared on TV station several times last four years when I went to Kejetia and hanged myself.
I was asked why and I told them it’s all because of pressure and I hanged myself where I blocked traffic and the police came to arrest me and people asking me won’t I marry, give birth or my penis isn’t functioning…”
“Is it pressure or not?” he asked the general public.
