Renowned broadcaster and Deputy CEO of the Ghana Tourism Authority, Gilbert Abeiku Aggrey, popularly known as Abeiku Santana, has officially responded to recent claims made by former Deputy Minister of Tourism, Arts, and Culture, Mark Okraku-Mantey, regarding his alleged continued involvement in radio broadcasting.
The issue came to light during an appearance by Mark Okraku-Mantey on Joy FM’s Showbiz A-Z, hosted by Kwame Dadzie, where he questioned why the media has supposedly remained silent about Abeiku Santana reportedly still hosting the Ekwanso Dwoodwoo drive time show on Okay FM, despite his public appointment in government.
In a rebuttal posted on his official Facebook page, Abeiku Santana categorically denied the allegations, stating: “I wish to categorically state that the recent claim made by Mr. Mark Okraku Mantey, alleging that I am still actively engaged in radio broadcasting despite my government appointment, is entirely false and misleading.”
The post aims to set the record straight and dispel ongoing speculation regarding Abeiku Santana’s professional responsibilities since taking up his role at the Ghana Tourism Authority under President Mahama’s administration.
