The Minister of Communications, Dr Edward Omane Boamah has reiterated that there was an “obvious media bias against the government,” which was very well known.
In a radio interview on Joy FM Tuesday morning, the Communications Minister maintained that there were a number of times that he had to respond to calls to engage not just Multimedia radio stations but several other media organisations on their biases.
He was responding to a publication in the Ovation Magazine in which President Mahama said a group of media practitioners have been “blocking” and “distorting” his developmental agenda.
Dr Omane Boamah insisted: “The obvious bias the President has spoken about it, it is obvious and it is not lost, no one can challenge this.”
Asked to put out names of media personnel the President referred to as a “cabal” Dr Boamah declined and said “I’m sure if the President wanted to put out names, he would have done that but this bias is very well known.”
He urged the media to be a little more receptive and flexible in treating “good news also coming from government and the NDC as a political party.”

MU NSUSU MU DUEBU DODO..... NTASENTASE NA ATSIMO,,,, AFE NA MUU TUTU AYAMPIA. NA WHO CAUSE AM????? WHILE KUFFOUR WAS CATAPULTING DAILY GUIDE, AKUFFO ADDO WAS MASSAGING STATESMAN DURING THEIR REGIM. WHILE THEY DO ALL THEY COULD TO SUPPRESS THE FEW IN BED WITH YOU. SO IF BY GOD'S GRACE YOU HAVE A SHOT OF POWER, YOU DECIDE TO PLAY GOD WITH THE DEVIL. WHEN THEIR OWN PEOPLE CHASTISE THEM FOR WORKING WITH YOU, YOU NEGLECT YOUR OWN AND RUN TO THEM. SO DO YOU THINK THEY ARE NOT HAPPY TO BROADCAST FOR YOU..... WO Y3 A.B.OA WAI. WHILE WE SQUEEZE THE TRIGGER AT EVERY CROSSHAIRS,,, YOU GINGER THEM TO STAGE A COME BACK,,,, JUST STOP TALKING N.O.NESENCE AND GO GET IT RIGHT. WE WILL WIN THE ELECTIONS, AND AFTER THAT YOU WILL TELL US WHO IS BEHIND THIS. UNLESS YOU CAN COME OUT WITH SOMETHING REASONABLE, STAY OUT OF THE AIRWAVES WITH THESE SI.LL.Y CLAIMS. YOU JUST PUT ME OFF.
Am surprised at this. The President was quiet when Stan Dogbe treated Journalists with contempt.I thought the government didn't need them that much. Anyway i am for J M Akuffo Addo.
I listened to yur proram this morning and instead of using the opportunity to discuss projects and how you will let the prices of electricity bill to come down and jobs, you were rather insulting opposition that if they go to the chiefs they should say whether they can chew roads. It was so appalling on your part and that is what has been running through NDC communications. Accept that you are bad managers of the economy which is a fact and stop throwing dust to the eyes of the electorate. You are going to loose power anyway. Tamale airport is still the same old Military installation except the extension of runway. So the lies depicted on the artistic impression is not true. This is the lies we want you to address.
