The just ended inaugural ceremony will have a lot of memorable moments but one which has just become the new “craze” of a lot of people on micro-blogging site, twitter, is Nana Addo’s few minutes if cough with the #coughchallenge.
President was seized by cough as he was delivering his inaugural speech at the Independence Square which made him look visibly strained and momentarily needing water which was not readily available.
Ghanaians have taken to Twitter, some to solidarise with the new president while others are mock him.
Many have recorded videos of themselves coughing while others are using hashtag to express themselves in different ways.
