Controversial and outspoken journalist Blessed Godsbrain Smart aka ‘Captain Smart‘, has rained insults on any Ghanaian who intends to vote into power the New Patriotic Party (NPP).

Captain Smart during his morning show on Onua TV's Maakye morning show on July 11, 2024 called every Ghanaian who has plans of voting for what he labels as the 'Bawumia-NAPO' ticket is an "animal".

"Now let me say this, you are an animal if you vote for NPP.I will repeat this statement again, the ticket of Bawumia-NAPO if you vote for them then you are an animal" he fumed.

Only a senseless human being would vote for Dr Bawumia and his running mate Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh (NAPO).

"You are senseless, in fact your sense has been thrown to the floor, trampled on and left to decay.

Not to say you aren't human, but you are one that I love, respect, crave your presence so much but if indeed you vote these people, then ...

Anyone who has no love for his country is no human but an animal, that person is a beast; an animal!" he emphasised.

The Ghana Journalists Association (GJA), alongside various social stakeholders, have strongly criticized Blessed Godsbrain Smart of Onua TV/Onua FM for making disparaging remarks about individuals supporting the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the upcoming elections.

At a press briefing held in Accra on Tuesday (July 16), Albert Kwabena Dwumfour, president of the GJA, voiced their collective disapproval, stating that,

“Over the weekend, for example, we heard the disturbing and reckless comments of Blessed Godsbrain Smart aka ‘Captain Smart‘, made on Accra-basedOnuaTV. He described them as ‘beasts, people who would vote for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the December elections.”

Dwumfour said, “Given the severity of his utterances and the ethical breach, we call on the board and management of Media General, to take immediate action to mete out appropriate sanctions to Mr. Smart. This will not only serve as a deterrent to others but will enhance public confidence in the media organisation, as an organisation that detest unprofessional conduct.”
