Alhaji Inusah Hamza Lansah’s move to Tolon Multimedia has created a sharp division among supporters of the governing NDC in the Northern Region.
While some NDC supporters see his move as a good one and his right, others have described the move as betrayal of the party by the seasoned journalist.
The Tolon Communications Officer of the NDC, Dr. Seidu Fiter who reacted to the move by Mr. Lansah said, “Alhaji Inusah Hamza Lansah is a prolific journalist, and what makes him so is how he tackles issues with the truth. If he continues that way in TOLON, it is going to be a win for us, NDC. If he veers off from the truth, which I don’t expect from him, it is going to be injurious to his brand. Because we will always counter and expose lies in the constituency as we have always done”.
Dr. Seidu, accused the NDC of not showing appreciation to some media brands and personalities in the area who helped the party while in opposition.
He said, “We, as a party, must understand that politics is deliberate. In an era where media plays a critical role in reaching your audience and setting the agenda, you must invest in it. Some media platforms have helped us while in opposition, but what has been the “thank you” for these platforms?”.
Alhaji Inusah Hamza Lansah who until two days ago worked with Sagani TV in Tamale, announced his move to Tolon Multimedia and this sent shock waves across the Northern Region.
The commentary mostly from supporters of the NDC have accused him of betraying the party with his move to a media house which is said to be owned by Deputy Minority Whip, Alhaji Habib Iddrisu.
More names are expected to make a move to the Tolon Multimedia which is expected to go on air in the coming days.
