Police CID on Monday questioned Multimedia reporter Manasseh Azure Awuni over his reportage on contracts handed to Jospong Group of Companies under the previous government.
Reportage from Joy News have shown how the businessman with ties to the NDC had received numerous contracts on sole sourcing basis from the previous government, mostly at figures inflated far above market prices.
Lydia Forson has jumped to the defence of Anita Erskine, herself in ‘trouble’ for reaching out to Rashida the Black Beauty to offer her help instead of condemnation as so many others were quick to in the wake of the release of her n*de video.
Forson also reserved some words of venom for Manasseh Azure Awuni, the multimedia journalist who on any issue of perceived morality anoints himself the judge, jury and executioner – the repository of all that is just.
Joy Fm’s Manasseh Azure Awuni in a Facebook post has said Stonebwoy who is set to marry Dr.Louisa Ansong, a dentist, is a hypocrite–as he preaches vices and practices virtue.
Manasseh claims Stonebwoy is a hypocrite because he’s gone for a decent woman while he tells Ghanaians to dress almost naked and feature in his videos.
He wrote: “When you do your music, you tell us to dress almost naked and feature in your videos. We twerk and do all the things you want us to do. When it was time to marry, you went for a dentist, who’s dress code is so decent, so different from what you make us portray to the world. What are you telling us?”
Manasseh Azure recently turned some eyebrows when comments of his over how he doesn’t mind washing his wife’s panties hit the media.
Manasseh’s comments were an excerpt from his book, which he launched in Accra during the week.
Multimedia reporter Manasseh Azure Awuni had the audience at his book launch in shock when he declared he has no problem washing his wife’s panties every single day.
Manasseh was reacting to an excerpt from the book, ‘A Letter to my Future Wife’, which talks about his willingness to wash his wife’s dedicates as doing so has no effect on his manhood or intelligence.
Man of the moment Nana Kwame clashed with his foe Manasseh Azure on Joy Fm’s Super Morning Show Friday, with the pair attempting to put their ‘feud’ to rest on the show.
Nana Kwame revealed on the show that he’s really gained some newfound fame due to the entire saga, as evidenced by the explosive increase in the number of friends he has on Facebook now.
With the rampant nature of his current blocking spree assuming apocalyptic proportions, a new theory has sprung up as to why so many people feel they are blocked by Manasseh.
A Plus is the latest to complain about receiving the fierce wrath of the outspoken Manasseh who has been at the mercy of the Gh troll machine the past couple of days.
GhanaCelebrities.Com editor Chris-Vincent Agyapong Febiri has taken the beleaguered multimedia journalist Manasseh Azure back to school for a free speech lesson after the latter embarked on a blocking extravaganza earlier today (Thursday).
Manasseh, fed up with the massive trolling coming his way for his TKO loss at the hands of Nana Kwame, decided to block some of those trolling him.
Massive development in the feud of the moment as Manasseh Azure has changed his profile picture to that of Nana Kwame, his own slayer.
Manasseh’s Facebook account effected the change Thursday, just after 14:00 GMT – sending shock waves throughout all us Ghanaians keenly following the feud.
Joy Fm’s Manasseh Azure, who has been trending for all the wrong reasons the past couple days, has ensured he would stay in the news for just a while longer by going on a blocking spree against his ‘haters’.
The outspoken reporter was ‘Nana Kwame’d’ by the now famous Nana Kwame, and he has been incessantly trolled since, a fact he’s unhappy about.
Manasseh Azure Awuni has been brutally trolled by Ghanaians online after he wrote a ‘project work’ style response to a Ghanaian who brilliantly trolled him for attacking an African conference of CEO’s held in Europe.
Manasseh wondered aloud why the conference was not held in Africa to keep the revenue generated from it here, which prompted Nana Kwame’s now viral response.
Seems like a lot of Ghanaians have really ‘mean’ Manasseh Azure Awuni – the Joy Fm reporter is currently being trolled big time on social media for his current ‘feud’ with Nana Kwame.
Manasseh lambasted African CEO’s for holding a conference in Geneva when it could equally have been held in any African city to boost its economy. That prompted the now viral response from Nana Kwame asking Manasseh why he held his wedding in Aburi and not his hometown of Bongo to boost its economy.
Joy News presenter Manasseh Azure Awuni has written on the endless praise and adulation the NDC are handing themselves after completion of the new interchange at the Kwame Nkrumah Circle – and his conclusion is a simple one – “any idiot can borrow money and build projects”.
Manasseh argues in a piece tackling the issue that borrowing money to build such projects is not something to pat oneself on the back about, considering that nearly anyone can do that. What takes guts and initiative, he argued, is generating funds to carry out such projects so that a burden does not fall on the coming generations.
Actress Lydia Forson turned her literary prowess on journalist Manasseh Azure Awuni Sunday, after the latter made a post criticising her for ‘encouraging’ Hamamat Montia’s supposed immoral dressing to the last VGMA.
Lydia Forson, in another of her lengthy blog posts, took the reporter to task for his dyed in the wool, misogynistic world view- which only looks at blaming the woman in any such situation and assumes all feminists are fighting a war against men.
We constantly decry the ignorance, bigotry, and backwards mentality of our countrymen on this site, and for good reason. There is scarcely a nation on this globe so actively dedicated to remaining in a time long gone.
This mentality is often fuelled by our irrational superstitions and a dogmatic approach to the white man’s religion. This mentality often manifests in a bigoted approach to dealing with perceived deviants; persecuting ‘witches’, lynching homosexuals; and the most common, giving our money to ‘pastors’.
This mentality has manifested tenfold in our reaction to the US Supreme Court ruling legalising gay marriage across the country. Quietly sitting in our third world country, we’ve all turned into armchair pundits, armed with our 2,000 year old Holy Book and pronouncing impending Armageddon.
Manasseh Azure Awuni is widely regarded as one of the best journalists in Ghana right now; which I would concede is probably a fair assessment. He is also one of those bible thumping, 1st century bigots this country is overrun with, as a Facebook post of his this afternoon showed.
Manasseh put forward a very shallow, close minded riposte to the Ghanaians who are describing those opposing the judgement as backwards. In a post he probably thinks puts forward a cogent argument against both homosexuals and his perceived Ghanaian opponents, he did nothing but prove himself as being one of the close minded individuals LGBT opponents often are.
No doubt it is a populist post, with most Ghanaians having that same mindset. But the arguments put forth are so shallow minded it beggars belief that a supposed top journalist in the country would confidently display them as his views on the issues. But in the land of the blind…
