Allotey Jacobs Resigns from All Political Radio Shows

The former Central Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Allotey Jacobs has announced his decision to stop attending political discussions on radio stations including Peace FM’s “Kokrokoo”

This follows his suspension by NDC over claims of “persistent anti-party conduct.”

However, he clarified that, though he will absent himself from studio panel discussions, he will still grant interviews to radio and TV stations when called upon.

In an interview on Peace FM's morning show 'Kokrokoo', Wednesday morning, Allotey Jacobs who was expected to be in the studio said "it cannot be that because of one man, a whole political party will boycott your show".

"Peace FM is part of my success . . . what happened last week I still don’t understand. Those I started politics with in the 70s called and spoke to me and so I came to the conclusion that I won't come . . . I am very sorry; I know I will disappoint you (Kwami Sefa Kayi) but what buttress my position," according to him is a vision he had of late President, Prof John Evans Atta Mills.

The NDC has decided to boycott Peace FM's morning show 'Kokrokoo' in connection to the conduct of now Social Commentator, Bernard Allotey Jacobs.

In a statement signed by its National Communication Officer, Sammy Gyamfi, the party said: "Specifically, the reason for this boycott has to do with the unreasonable decision of the Producers and Host of the program to permanently reserve one (1) of the two (2) slots the party has traditionally had on Wednesdays on the show to Mr. Allotey Jacobs, who is often introduced by the host of the program as a “Social Commentator with strong leanings to the NDC”, ostensibly to spite the NDC.
