Winneba (Cape Coast), 4th October 99 - The District Chief Executive for Awutu-Effutu-Senya, Lieutenant Daniel William Osardu, has commended "Peace FM" Radio Station in Accra for the able manner it handles issues concerning personalities in the country.
He made the commendation after listening to a programme that dealt with the settlement by President Jerry John Rawlings and Otumfuor Osei Tutu II, Asantehene, of the misunderstanding between Nana Akwasi Agyemang, Metropolitan Chief Executive of Kumasi and Dr Winfred Richard Anane, MP for Bantama.
The DCE said at Winneba that the careful and able manner the Presenter conducted affairs prevented certain individuals who phoned in to contribute from using indecent language.
He asked presenters of other radio stations to learn from their counterparts at "Peace FM" and to promote freedom of speech as enshrined in the 1992 constitution.
Lt Osardu said that he was highly impressed when the presenter told a contributor that, "please mind your words; we are not here to do things that will disintegrate the people but to unite them for national development".
He said Ghanaians despite their ethnic, political and religious leanings belong to one strong and dynamic family and should ensure lasting unity, peace, stability, economic growth and progress.
