Why Naa Ashorkor was sacked by Multimedia

Enewsgh.com can now confirm the possible reason behind former Multimedia presenter, Naa Ashorkor’s axing.

Many Ghanaian media organisations, because they own plural outfits, run a convergence model; one that requires employees, though primarily engaged on one platform, to also lend assistance on another.

Per accounts of deep-throat sources available to Enewsgh.com, Ashorkor is alleged to have consistently found ways to swerve her television obligations, an action that has occasioned the termination of her contract.

Enewsgh.com also gathers that Ashorkor, who was paid a month’s salary in lieu of the notice of her sacking. She is not the only Multimedia employee that should be exiting the outfit around this period. Others may be axed our sources say.

Earlier today, in a Facebook post announcing her departure from the Multimedia Group, Ashorkor, who also moonlights as a successful actress among other professions, failed to specify the reason for her axing, opting instead to conclude her statement with a hope spiel.

EXPLAINER:

- She was a Service Provider employed for both Radio and Television. Most media establishments in Ghana employ the Convergence model, where employees are required to work across the various properties of the stable under one contract document

- Management had reason to believe she consistently and deliberately neglected the television aspect of her engagement

- She will be paid one month salary in lieu of the decision to terminate her appointment

- She gets an extra month’s salary to see her through the period

I have got Good news and bad news everyone! With immediate effect as of yesterday, my now former employers, Multimedia Group, terminated my appointment. That's the bad news. Now for the good news, such situations only give my God the opportunity to show up. It's not an easy time to be out of a regular and steady income. We are not in normal times, but hey, I would like to use this opportunity to encourage everyone who has lost their job or income during these difficult times to not lose hope. Hope is an amazing thing that gives us the ability to stand and trust God in such difficult circumstances. Don't lose hope. Jeremiah 29:11, For I know the plans.
