Politics of Monday, 31 May 2021Source: 3news.comThe Media Foundation for West Africa, MFWA is challenging the Akufo Addo Presidency to deploy National Security to undertake a national survey on the extent of ‘culture of silence’ permeating the Ghanaian society. Sulemana Braimah who is the Executive Director of the MFWA says “ If they like they should commission the National Security to do a national survey about how people feel about the freedom to express themselves; they should go to the universities and conduct an honest survey among academic staff and get to know what the feedback is and this is very sensitive. Sulemana Braimah was reacting to President Akufo Addo’s condemnation of criticisms by media houses on his presidency. “If you have fewer voices who are articulating and those voices then become powerful blockade and it must take courage and people say you are courageous or that. When we get to a point and people who express their views are told they are courageous then there is something wrong”.
