Multimedia/Joy Fm shd not kotow to the demands of NDC,they are criminals who want to use intimidation to suppress the views of Ghanaians who object to their thievery habits.Kobla Dumor suffered this same intimidation.

By the way, i used to eat, drink and sleep Joy FM but i no longer do so for obvious reasons. Any first news item on Joy headline news be it 6am, 12 oon or 6pm is anti NDC government it's just too glare.

Kojo Yankson was caught stealing when he he was at Capvars but was saved because of his father Prof. Yankson. The records are there.

Competing with some strong men like Bernard Avle of Citi fm, i don't think this guy deserves to sit on radio if he can't carefully select his words. He will drive Joy fm's listeners to their Competitors

I am an open minded floating voter and as such I want to listen to unbiased, cultured reportage and programmes. As a result, I regularly listen to BBC from 4.30 to 6am, then to CITIFM with NPP leaning Bernard Avle and Richard Skyy from 6am to 7am. Then to BBC till 7.30 or 8am. Then I work. I repeat this in the evening-BBC from 4.30pm till 5.30, then the wonderful CITIFM till 7.00pm. Friday afternoons-Atlantis, or 107.5 FM for good musi...Weekends, I switch from CITIFM to NDC leaning Radio Gold 9 throughout to 12pm, switching to and fro every 15 or 30 minutes. Sometimes I get pissed off with any of them if they are too obviously subjective and too pro-what-ever-issue and I switch off or away totally. JOYFM? Forget it! JOYFM died for me when Komla left there! At least he was unbiased and objective, not the present guys there. For Kojo Yankson? I won't waste my breath on him! Nor on Montie FM, nor on OMANFM or all those other uncultured radio stations!I dont listen to all the drivel on all of them! Sundays, Radio RFI with original french and english programming and BBC!!No local radios on Sundays!Oh, Ghanaians grow up!

All those accusers of Kojo Yankson are obviously a particular party followers.The man has aplogised so why all the insults. The man deals with realistic issues affecting the nation and we see it as a problem? God help us.City Fm and the rest can be compared to Joy fm whatsoever, much as i respect other Radio stations. kojo Yankson is the best breakfast show host. Am based in Uk and i tell you what, we enjoy him including my white colleagues and even Ghanaian shops.

In Ghana there is no such a thing like "Sense of Humour".
The president was earlier on pictured wearing a camouflaglike green colured military uniform. And as a common place in the northern regions he now owns a motorbike and he was pictured with his bike as well. Then the funniest of them all our President is known to have bought a gun. Then worst of it all, it is understood that our President rides about in town without being captured as well.
Putting all of these information together one can also say that armed robbers have all of theses assets with which the go to do their job.
There is a great sense of humour in the western and central regions of Ghana but not beyond. I sincerley believe that Kojo Yankson was truly joking.
People really insult their heads of state , and prime ministers and because of freedom of speech in the Western civilised democracy no one cares a hoot about who in the hell insultd people in power.
Thanks to goodness that Kojo is back.

Those who are calling for Kojo to be sacked, haven't they erred in their life? Whether they like it or not the guy is good at what he does. If you hate him then stop listening to Joy fm cos discerning minds are always listening. What ever bad thing you say about him or joy fm won't change anything because everyone is entitled to their opinion. People should get busy with their lives and stop bringing him down.
