Gospel Artiste Cwesi Oteng has angrily left some unexpected ballistic words for George Quaye live on Okay Fm.
GhanaCelebrities.com earlier reported about the feud between Cwesi Oteng and George Quaye who is the P.R.O of Charter House.
Gospel artist Cwesi Oteng is furious with Communications Director for CharterHouse, George Quaye, for some remarks he made concerning gospel artists in the country.
Quaye, whose organisation CharterHouse organises the annual Music Awards scheme, had claimed on a program that gospel artists even pay bribes more than other genres to get a nomination on the show.
Editor of GhanaCelebrities.Com, Chris-Vincent Agyapong Febiri has been fighting a ‘fierce’ battle on social media—which has led to justice and apology for Ghanaian-Hollywood star, Abraham Attah—who became a subject of radio ridicule by Jay Foley of Live Fm, Lexis Bill and MzGee of Joy Fm.
Though the above radio personalities have apologized after social media went GAGA on them, surprisingly, Charter House’s PR-George Quaye jumped into the conversation yesterday to defend Jay Foley— saying, he did nothing wrong and should not have apologized.
Chris-Vincent took him on and stated among other things that it was inappropriate for anyone to defend these people and say they did nothing wrong, especially when they themselves have apologised.
One would think that after the near unanimous condemnation of the acts of the three musketeers, and their own tacit admission of guilt by all apologising within 24 hours of the furore- we could all call this a day and move on.
But Charter House mouthpiece Georege Quaye, after listening to the Jay Foley portion of the tape, declared that people were wrong to criticise Jay Foley, as he found nothing wrong with it.
I will start this article by quoting myself ‘It is difficult to be a real critic but more difficult to be really criticized…’
Interestingly, Entertainment in Ghana has gained remarkable grounds with many radio stations holding several discourses each week aimed at strengthening the fast developing industry.
Though prominence is mostly given to Music and Movies, occasionally, several sectors of the Art industry is considered—-and those who sit on the ‘talking benches’ seem not to be accountable to anyone.
Today, I’ve decided to hold some of them accountable, the same way they hold others accountable with their sharp and sometimes, rough teeth.
I will look at the popular Entertainment Radio Shows in a sequence, starting with Peace Fm’s Entertainment Review hosted by Kwasi Aboagye…
Now the Host-Kwasi Aboagye
With many years of radio experience, you cannot really find fault with the presenting structures he throws unto the table each week. When he has a to host interview segments, he pushes the boundaries to ask the hard question, which has in the past abruptly ended some of his interviews—-simply because, it gets tough for the persons at the other side.
On Entertainment Review, Kwasi Aboagye’s primary responsibility centres around being able to hold his panel within reasonable moderation, thereby ensuring they do not stray off the pathway and probably not throw punches at each other—when dissenting.
With a robust approach and strange sense of firmness, Kwasi is able to bring on path when there is an attempted escape. Occasionally, he is forced by his own underlying principles to join the discussions in length, especially when he feels his panel members are losing focus on the substantive issue.
