Is better they are appointed to work for the country and receive salaries unlike in the NPP when journalists like OB, Omanhene of Asempa fm, peace fm journalists and a host lotof their media cabal were being paid for no work done. Kwame Sefa Kayi was the person in charge of NPP media agenda and his pay was more than that of some ministers.

Please ask that Nkansah fool for me to tell us where Kojo Oppong Nkrumah worked? He is an idiot. He should check the submissions of the Catalyst newspaper and the Centrust newspaper editors during panel discussions. Kwasea. He should check the newsstand and count the number of pro NPP tabloids.

This Ofosu Nkansah is a currupt guy who collected money from NPP delegate to provides jobs, he takes bribe to lobby for national scholarships abroad meanwhile you won't get it nor getting your money back, he was in charge of Npp 419 kayaye university. Am happy he is being investigated by EOCO, this sickler think Ghanaians are fools like his family members, how can a journalist convince me to vote for a worst government who sent dollars to gh17, real hardship, taking bondholders money, highest unemployment rate ever, so ordinarily Ghanaian won't see it unless a journalist tells us? After all John Mahama has provided work for all Ghanaians not family and friends government. Stupid boy Ofosu Nkansah who has never worked before but given appointment as NEIP CEO.

Mr. Nkansah, these journalists rather didn't own the airways and spewed falsehood or praised DDEP or told us E-levy will solve all our problems. Even if they were biased against the NPP, they are a small minority. If you think knowledgeable journalists should not be appointed by any government, get through your MP a private members law to establish that. Hypocrisy is all I read in your statement.

Mr Nkansah,you know what,NDC is smarter than NPP . That's all. I don't know what will bring you back to power now. It's sad now because you are complaining about everything that NDC government is doing now. Perhaps you have forgotten that President Mahama has a comminucation background.

mr nkansah go back and peruse some of their contributions towards nurturing our democracy. you`ll realise that they were not biased. their contributions were for a better ghana. mahama`s reset includes maximising ghana`s talents and bringing everyone on board regardless. haven`t you realised he has even left some of akuffo addo`s appointees in post because he knows they can contribute positively? unlike akuffo addo`s government, mahama believes ghana is for all of us.
