The National Media Commission (NMC) has directed Management of Authentic Media Company Limited, operators of Power FM to apologise to the second Lady, Samira Bawumia for allowing the platform to be used as a medium to insult the Second Lady.
According to the NMC, On Wednesday November 1, 2023, the station was allowed to be used as the medium for gender-based insults on H.E. Hajia Samira Bawumia in a perverted and debased broadcast that also sought to denigrate the entire Fulani Community in Ghana and incite ethnic tension.
The NMC was of the view that such behaviour has no place in the country’s search for national cohesion, peace and development.

“Your presenter’s phoney protestation was unprofessional and deceitfully calculated to egg the commentator on,” NMC stated.
It was of the view that instead of being a moderator, the said presenter became a cheerleader for obscenity.
“We ask you to apologise to H.E. Hajia Samira Bawumia and the Fulani Community. We additionally ask that you apologise to the Ghanaian public whose sensibilities you breached by that broadcast,” NMC stated.
It Continued that,”We expect you to undertake the above and present evidence of the same to the Commission before November 11, 2023 after which date you may hear further from the Commission.”
