Press Notice: Gifty Anti's Rejoinder

REJOINDER,

ACCRA 30TH JUNE 2015.

POINT OF CORRECTION SIR/MADAM

My attention has been drawn to an article published by ghanaweb.com, quoting your website, pulse.com.gh as its source.

The said story with a headline "I nearly committed suicide - Gifty Anti", purported that I, GIFTY Anti told Anita Erskine, host of The One Show on Viasat 1, that I nearly committed suicide due to peer pressure.

I will like to categorically state that this report is absolutely false.

Though I was on the said programme on 28th June, 2015, at no point did Anita Erskine even ask me about my growing up days and neither did I talk about my growing up days or how I was affected by peer pressure.

There was no point during the interview did I mention that "I nearly committed suicide".

As a trained journalist myself, who has been in this industry for over 18 years, I do understand that we do make mistakes sometimes.

I therefore, hope that you will correct this mis-reportage and also ensure that the other websites that picked up the story from you will also do same.

I look forward to us working together to better our journalism,/media/blogging profession so the younger ones can also get it right.

Thank you for your cooperation.
