Minister for Communications, Digital Technology, and Innovations, Samuel Nartey George, has denied accusations that he ordered the halt of a social media show, “For The Records”, hosted by one Okatakyie Afrifa-Mensah.
Sam George described the accusations as baseless and part of a larger attempt to discredit him.
“A certain Sam George seems to be more powerful than even he knows. Even when they constipate, they blame Sam George,” he wrote on Facebook on Tuesday, March 11.
“The pain of defeat has clouded even logical minds to believe that I lose sleep over someone’s attempt to be relevant.”
Some NPP faithful claim Sam George allegedly instructed the National Communications Authority (NCA) to halt the show on Facebook and YouTube, prompting concerns about media freedom and censorship.
However, Sam George maintained that he was focused on delivering a digitally inclusive and functional ecosystem for Ghanaians.
