A Fox FM presenter in Kumasi, Captain Smart, has vowed to organise a mob attack on Joy FM’s sister station in the Garden City, Luv FM, unless Ato Kwamena Dadzie apologises for writing what he described as a disparaging article about the Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II.
Captain Smart also wants the management of the Multimedia Group to take Ato off the air by Wednesday this week.
In the wake of the Asantehene’s angry outbursts about the seeming inaction of the authorities days after the alleged criminal kidnapping of the Tuobodom chief at the behest of the Techiman chief, Ato wrote an article on his blog which was culled and published on Myjoyonline.com last Friday.
The article, Techiman vrs Asanteman: No one wins represents Ato’s personal views about the feud between the Asanteman and Bonoman councils.
Those views, Captain Smart believes, were sacrilegious and Ato must atone for his ‘sins’ by publicly apologizing and the Multimedia Group sacking him.
Anything short of that will have dire consequences for both Ato and the parent company of Luv FM, he threatened.
Luv FM’s news editor Saeed Ali Yakub told Joy FM’s Steve Anti that local radio in Kumasi Monday morning were inundated with angry callers who poured invectives on Ato Kwamena Dadzie, the author of “Pretending to be President.”
Saeed reports Smart as saying he was not perturbed about what action the security agencies might take against him.
The facts of the case, according to the editor, were being gathered so a formal complaint about Captain Smart’s threat can be lodged with the police.
