Radio Show Host Adakabre Frimpong Manso has alleged that some elements
within the opposition New Patriotic Party have threatened to kill him.
His comments come after the NPP blacklisted two media houses – Okay
FM and Neat FM belonging to the Despite group over what the party
described as bias.
But owners of the two media houses blacklisted by the NPP have denied accusations of bias against the opposition Party.
The NPP has directed its communicators not to appear on two top
programmes on Neat FM and Okay FM hosted by Kwame Atikesie and Adakabre
Frimpong Manso.
The party is accusing the media houses of propagating falsehood
against it. But in a statement the Despite group rejected the claims and
assured a common platform for all political parties for the interest of
its listeners.
However, Frimpong Manso has launched a scathing attack on the NPP
flagbearer Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo accusing him of death threats and
intimidation.
In an interview with Joy FM’s Kojo Yankson Monday, Frimpong Manso said he was only doing his job and has done nothing wrong.
According to him, he has several text messages from the NPP camp that state that he would be killed.
“…Nana Addo abused and threatened me, I was so sad and scared but I
kept quiet because I didn’t want to be the fall guy through which
something happens and they would say it is because of Adakabre so I kept
quiet.
“I was afraid because…I was told to the face that you will be killed
at a specific date, I have all the evidence, I can substantiate them…I
have everything on my phone, I have kept the phones and I would be
willing to show it to anybody who wants to see them,” Frimpong Manso
said.
