Honourable Elijah Adansi-Bonah, Municipal Chief Executive for Obuasi has called on media practitioners in the Obuasi Municipality to work with the ethics governing their profession and eschew personal attacks on personalities.
He was asking questions from a cross section of journalists during the weekend at the Obuasi East New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) delegates conference on his recent purported braw with some media men in the municipality.
“I have nothing against any journalist in or outside town, but my problem is to prejudge me on your platform on an issue before you call me to explain myself; that’s not ethical”
“I’ve been a Broadcast journalist for a while, so I know what I’m talking about; Whenever you prejudge someone before calling on him, its one way or the other a personal attack”, he stated.
The Municipal Chief Executive before his appointment was a Journalist with Kumasi based Hello FM and the Assembly member for Sanso Electoral area.
