For many people in Ghana, politics is a dirty game, They draw their conclusion from the often antagonistic disposition our political discourses assume, If you are not part then don’t be surprised if you are victimised for your choice, Connect FM 97.1’s Wofa Ato wants to be MP!
Golden rule: if you are in you are in and if you are out you are out. Many have tried to play it safe but get sorely disappointed in the end. It takes a person with balls the size of a church bell to declare his support for a political party and damn the consequences.
Thus, mixing journalism and politics will be tantamount to mixing petrol and fire; you will be burnt. Do you take that chance when you are a budding journalist?
Stories abound of journalists who have gone that way but have had little success. Wofa Ato, as affectionately called on radio works for Connect FM. He wants to wade in uncharted waters.
He is contemplating putting on a political cloak; at least that is what a post on his Facebook suggests.
“I have an MP ambition ahead of me in a few years. Asikuma Odoben Brakwa Constituency where I belong. What do you suggest”, the post reads.
Kyfilla.com has this suggestion. Young man, do you have the where withal, kyfilla.com is asking.
