Angel FM suspends Captain Smart for slandering govt officials
Radio host Blessed Godsbrain Smart, alias Captain Smart has been suspended by Angel FM for allegedly repeatedly slandering government officials including President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.
This was disclosed by the General Manager of Angel FM, Kwadwo Dickson in a radio broadcast Thursday. Videos of the broadcast (below) have since gone viral on social media.
Responding to speculations on social media that Captain Smart had been yanked off the air by the management of Angel FM for criticising the government, Mr. Dickson said the presenter had rather been sanctioned by the Chairman of the Angel Group of Companies, Dr Kwaku Oteng for speaking against government officials including President Akufo-Addo, the Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia, the Minister for Trade and Industry, Alan Kyerematen and the Inspector-General of Police (IGP), James Oppong-Boanuh
