The Director of Communications for the (NPP), Richard Ahiagbah, has criticised the continuous attacks on journalists, urging President Mahama to take action instead of mere talks, citinewsroom.com has reported.
Ahiagbah highlighted the importance of protecting the rights laid down in the constitution, especially Article 21, which promises freedom of speech for all citizens, including the media. "It's troubling, we should condemn it in no uncertain terms, that act is unacceptable.
President Mahama talking about it is not the solution. "What we're looking for is to stop that environment, give full effect to Article 21, the freedom of speech of citizens, including the media, is guaranteed.
We are just asking for what the Constitution has provided," he said.
