Anyone possessed by the 'gods' become deaf to good counsel - Allotey Jacobs

NDC Former Central Regional Chairman, Allotey Jacobs on Wednesday, May 13, 2020, left listeners of Peace FM's Morning Show 'Kokrokoo' stunned when he announced his exit from the programme as a result of his party's threat to boycott the station.

The production team, panel and listeners of the show could not believe their ears when Allotey Jacobs, who is formally introduced as a Social Commentator, reached a decision to pull out of the station's political platforms and all radio political discussions in toto.

Allotey was however downhearted that he had to make such considerations and citing reasons for his decision said in an interview with Kwami Sefa Kayi that some people have been so possessed by ''gods'', that they have become deaf to good counsel.

Although he didn't disclose names of the ''gods and their possessed objects'', he, however, gave a hint these characters are within his own party, the National Democratic Congress.

" . . you should know that whom the gods have possessed, they have no ears to listen neither an eye to see. I won't confront those whom the gods have possessed," he said.

Allotey Jacobs said he won't fight back the party's decision resulting in the revocation of his membership.

"If it is because of one man, a whole big political party in opposition will say they won't come to Peace FM; then let me go back to the biblical saying that it is better to sacrifice one man than for a whole nation to perish," he stated.
