Is Graphic afraid of the name T. B. Joshua?
Obibinii Paa-Kwasi
Commentary, Dec 12, Ghanadot - I once visited the premises of
the Graphic Communications Group Ltd to make inquiries about
their advertisement/announcement packages. And at the end of my
inquiries, one thing was made very clear to me thus the
front-page of the Daily Graphic was only meant for adverts of
companies, government agencies and issues of national interest.
This meant that no individual would be given the chance to
advertise on its front-page regardless of how much one was
willing to pay or how important that advert was to the person.
Indeed this is a very good principle and I think it is a good
one. Therefore if this is the case and that principle still
stand then I would like to know why and how one “Anthony Kwame
Haick” was given the chance to wish Prophet T.B. Joshua a Happy
New Year on the front-page of the Daily Graphic dated Monday,
January 11, 2010. Hence I talked to someone at the office of
Daily Graphic just before writing this piece and I was still
made to understand that the principle of not allowing
individuals to advertise on their front-page still stand. So you
see, am I being misinformed here or someone did not do his or
her job right? However, if I am being misinformed then I would
like the Editor of the Graphic to give me just one edition [i.e.
the date of the edition] when an individual was given the chance
to advertise on the front-page of the Daily Graphic.
Or is it what I am thinking thus the name T.B. Joshua was so
powerful to blindfold some people to an extent that they forgot
about their professional code of conduct? Or is T.B. Joshua now
of national interest to the development of this nation? Or was a
directive issued from the most “powerful” man [i.e. Order from
above] in Ghana to back this advert? Anyway, if the principle
has changed then I would be more than glad to know because my
son’s birthday is just around the corner and I would be more
than glad to wish my son a happy birthday on the front-page of
the Daily Graphic regardless of the cost involved. If not then
those in charge of the Daily Graphic should bow their head in
any pool of shame they find near them and must also be humble
enough to apologize to Ghanaians as soon as possible.

Agya-Atta must get rid of that
communication disaster now!!
Commentary, Dec 17, Ghanadot - I am sometimes
engulfed in a pool of perplexity when I see people abuse
the art of communication especially those in government.
Indeed this is an art that can be used to kill or heal
depending on how it is used therefore learning
positively the usage of this art should be something we
must all strive for. .......More
