NATIONAL MEDIA COMMISSION (NMC) has issued a week ultimatum to the Power FM to, immediately render an apology to the Second Lady of the Republic of Ghana, H.E Hajia Samira Bawumia and Fulani community in the country.
According to the NMC, on Wednesday November 1, 2023, you allowed your station, Power Fm, to be used as the medium for gender-based insult on H.E. Hajia Samira Bawumia in a perverted and debased broadcast that also sought to denigrate the entire Fulani Community in Ghana and incite ethnic tension.
The NMC stressed that such behaviour has no place in its search for national cohesion, peace and development.
"Your presenter’s phoney protestation was unprofessional and deceitfully calculated to egg the commentator on. Instead of being a moderator, your presenter became a cheerleader for obscenity.
"We ask you to apologise to H.E. Hajia Samira Bawumia and the Fulani Community. We additionally ask that you apologise to the Ghanaian public whose sensibilities you breached by that broadcast, the Executive Secretary of NMC in the person of George Sarpong noted this in a pres statement.
"We expect you to undertake the above and present evidence of same to the Commission before November 11, 2023 after which date you may hear further from the Commission," the statement which is in possession of Soireenews.com stressed.
