Captain Smart the host of Onua FM's morning show has alleged that he once saved the life of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo who would otherwise have died a miserable death.
Speaking about his recent arrest on the Thursday, October 20 edition of his show, the journalist whose full name is Blessed Godsbrain Smart indicated that he realised on the night of his arrest that he is very important than the President.
He said that even though there was traffic during the rush hour, he had a dispatch rider escort them to the NIB office at Kanda for interrogation.
“How can one Captain Smart be given a presidential escort?” he asked while recounting his ordeal on TV.
“The presidency is involved in galamsey,” Captain Smart reiterated the point that eventually led to his arrest.
“…the so-called security apparatus wants to scare journalists; me [they can’t]. They should go and ask Kan-Dapaah, Addo Kufuor, J.A. Kufuor or even Nana Addo, who I saved his life in 2006; like he would have died like a chicken, ask him. Ask him that when he was taken to his hometown, Kibi, and we were returning to Accra, ask him what happened on our way. I saved Nana Addo’s life, you are all sick, ask Akufo-Addo, he will tell you,” he said.
“After he told him that he would have given me one of his daughters, ask Akufo-Addo. That time, Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko was in London sweeping the streets,” Captain Smart added.
He warned that nobody should worry him because he knows where he came from and where he is going.
“Ask Akufo-Addo who saved his life in 2006, when you meet him ask him. When we came to Accra he was asking what I wanted and I told him that I don’t need anything. My responsibility is to make sure that you live, because I believed in him from 2005…,” Captain Smart noted.
The Onua FM/TV morning show host was arrested by officials of the National Investigations Bureau (NIB) on Wednesday evening, October 19, while on his way home from work.
“BNI (now NIB) arrested Captain Smart earlier on his way home from the office(Onua 95.1 FM / @Onua TV premises)” a post by his media house, Onua TV on their Facebook page sighted by GhanaWeb stated.
In the early hours of Thursday morning, October 20, 3news.com, a portal belonging to the Media General group reported that he had been released after he was granted bail.
According to the report, after his initial arrest, Captain Smart "was later found at the Interrogation Unit of the Bureau.

With great concern to Captain Smart's comments, I have a reservation about him. Captain Smart is too loud of insults to people he criticized and that is not a practice of journalism. I pity him in his future endeavours. The law of cama will deal with each and everyone's life. He can criticized in his submission but insulting the high profile personalities like president is highly not acceptable.
What at all kwra is wrong with this man and he won’t let us have peace in this nation. We already have enough to think about. Everything that comes out of your mouth is violence. Can you learn how to talk without shouts and insults?
What has saving Akufo Addo's life got to do with the allegations against you? I was expecting Cpt Smart to provide evidence on his allegations against the Prez.
Such an ungrateful Captain Smart, you were given a contract by this same government to work like zoom lion in Kumasi Metropolis, and you were doing the job as it should and former president Kuffour was always asking Nana Addo to give you time, whilst you were enjoying tax payers money for no job done, and after losing that contract you started talking evil about the government, because you’re the only child of your mother, I think your upbringing was very bad.
The fact that you have access to the airwaves does not mean you can spew any garbage that comes into your head. what is difficult about providing evidence to the allegation you made, unless it was a palpable lie. It's a pity if you see yourself as a tin god. HOW INCREDIBLE!!!!
Why do you entertain this 'Attention Seeker'?
Captain Smart very dishonest person. Give us a break
Do you know? Ghanaians create their own monsters who, in their self-aclaimed subconscious space, want to exert the powers and smartness that they do not have. And when challenged, they become vile and ill-charged, acting like primitive monsters and... what? They pretty much feel offended when they don't have their ways and recognition that they perceive to be in possession. Such characters frequently seek to dine with the authorities, only to vehemently condemn them when their actions are called into question. The list of such characters is long in Ghana's political space and I hesitate to mention names. You know them by their acronyms and names.
***barred word*** f00l!!!! Saving someone's life give you the right or license to say anything you don't have evidence about such a person? The NIB is asking you to provide evidence to support your claim that the president is involved in galamsay? As for you, you can ***barred word*** and insult people, but they cannot ask questions to provide evidence. If you cannot manage your life don't blame others.
So that makes you God to talk anyhow without provising any basis? Be responsible with your utterances because the media is the tongue of the nation and can easily start an unquenchable fire. Nobody says don't talk, but be honest and stand ready to prove whatever you say.
