General News of Thursday, 2 November 2017Source: www.ghanaweb.comExposé on Mahama is the most risky investigation I have done – Manasseh Azureplay videoManasseh Azure Awuni2011 GJA Journalist of the Year, Manasseh Azure Awuni has described his investigative piece on the Ford expedition ‘gift’ to Former President John Dramani Mahama as the most dangerous grounds he has ventured into as far as investigative journalism is concerned. “He asked me to pause and when I was doing that he snatched the recorder from me. He said I had tricked him into saying things he shouldn’t say and that he will only return the recorder to me after deleting the interview”. After several unsuccessful attempts to play the interview, Manasseh says Mr Kanazoe connected the recorder to his laptop but couldn’t locate the file on the recorder leading him to believe that it might have been deleted when he snatched the recorder. Manasseh added that even though it is risky to probe top government officials, journalists should take up that charge and live up to the task that as that is the only way to eradicate corruption from the country.
