Thoughts: Nadia Buari’s Newly Hired USA Based Publicist Will Collapse Her Career, The Earlier Fired, The Better…Part 1

Nadia Buari

I think Nadia Buari should immediately fire her newly hired USA based publicist else she will sink and kill her career as an Actress. I have seen bad managers and publicists killing the career of talented stars in showbiz and I hope Nadia Buari does become a victim else her Hollywood ambition will never materialize.

You may be wondering why I am saying this. Last Sunday, a certain lady who claims to be a publicist based in USA and hired by Ghanaian star Actress Nadia Buari contacted me.

I was extremely excited about this since to me, Nadia Buari over the years have not been in a high-quality relationship with most media houses, this has even lead to a lot of people wrongly holding the belief that the actress is a total snob or has a cold attitude.

Personally, I vividly remember contacting Nadia Buari more than 3 times in an effort to establish the truth regarding certain things which we never caught her on good times. She must be a busy person and as such if I had contacts of her publicist, things would have been far quicker and extremely perfect since I would have gone to her rather.

With reference to the above and knowing how much good publicists can help a celebrity go places with her job, I was excited and saw Nadia Buari’s step to hire a publicists a way forward for her career and also a step towards building a good relationship with the media.

However, in my honest opinion, Nadia Buari should immediately fire this publicist she has gone for else she will sink her career and damage it. She will worsen and collapse her media relationship.

I earnestly think the so called publicist has barely any knowledge about how the media works and the laws governing media publications. She sounds extremely amateur from my recent dealing with her as far as I am concern. How can such a person be in charge of Nadia Buari’s public relations?

I cannot still believe this publicist who claims to be representing Nadia Buari asked that all “unfavorable articles” about Nadia Buari should be removed and none should be published again.

She kept using the word “unfavorable” in our dialogue which prompted me to inquire into what she meant by unfavorable. I asked because the truth can sometimes even be unfavorable. Guess what she said? She boldly stated that mentioning Nadia Buari as an ex-girlfriend  of Michael Essien in articles is unfavorable and amounts to defamation. What a joke!

To make me go pile on the face which prompted by doubt about her media and public relation knowledge considering the work she has been tasked with, she robustly mentioned that referring to Nadia Buari as a “media coward” is defamatory . Oh my Gosh! Why can’t some people with limited knowledge on certain things at least use Google before making statements which showcase them as absolute ignorant?

Let me freely coach this publicist of Nadia Buari on this. To establish defamation in any publication, the fundamental rule is that the publication must be considered in totality. You cannot select passages which are prima facie libelous if the publication taken as a whole is not defamatory just to support your libel claim.

What is even defamatory about expressing a honest opinion or saying “I don’t know if I am allowed to call her a media coward without being blasted by her fans who are failing to see the light”? This lady simply does not know what she is talking about or doing so Nadia Buari please beware.

I admire Nadia Buari as an Actress but to be frank, is this the person she wants to be in charge of her media and public relations? Nadia should be careful not to surround herself with amateurs who will drag her career into the gutters.

The most derisory aspect of my whole encounter with this USA based publicist newly hired by Nadia Buari is that, she does not seem to know the distinction between when a writer is merely commenting or expressing is honest opinion on a matter which is already in the media without malice in relation to a public figure (celebrity) and what defamation really entails. Neither does she seem to understand the distinction between imputations of guilt and statements of reasonable suspicion of guilt.

Can someone tell this publicist or beseech Nadia Buari to ask her to at least research and read publications that she tends to refute in order to ascertain what the publication really is about and where it stands, that is either it is a candid opinion without malice or it is presented as a fact.

Bringing a person’s honest opinion about an issue on a public figure under the strict armpit of defamation is a far stretched effort to unjustifiably undermine the greatest of all rights “freedom of expression which includes freedom to hold an opinion”.

Nadia Buari, safeguard your career by dropping this amateur publicist you have gone for or face the consequences with your career, something you have toiled over years to bring to this state. This sort of publicist cannot take you to your dreamland “Hollywood” and I believe she will do you more harm than good with her degree of ignorance.

Publishing this via my smart phone so spare me any spelling mistake…
