Tweaa, an Akan interjection used to express disapproval or contempt for a statement.
Barima was captured on video expressing anger at the audience, after an unknown individual allegedly said "Tweaa" during his speech, at an end-of-year event at the district directorate.
The video went viral on social media leading to coverage by traditional media.
"'Who made that 'tweaa' sound? Am I your size?...I have been given the platform to talk. You were not given the platform to talk. And so, what you are saying, nobody is listening except mine. 'Am I your colleague? Do you think you're my colleague?...You sit somewhere and behave like you're talking to your co-equal. Am I your co-equal? If you're a hospital worker, who are you? Why do you have to behave in that manner? I've ended my speech. I'm not talking again. If you don't respect people ... I'm not talking again. Take your programme.'"
People began making their own meanings to the phrase other than its original or traditional meaning.
A typical example is the spelling of the word in another way as "Tweeaa" to mean Traditional Way of Expressing Anger at Antagonism.
"Tweaa" also made its way to the Parliament of Ghana and its use was banned by Edward Adjaho, the speaker of parliament.
