The departure of Nana Ama McBrown has caused debate and name-calling among some Despite Media employees. She is therefore being transparent about her reasons for leaving Despite Media.
The host of 3FM’s Sunrise with Johnnie Hughes explained her side of the story while revealing that she didn’t have a legally binding contract with her former employers.
Giving further details on how she has ended up at Media General, she said “I had this call somewhere about early February, I ignored it. I was thinking about it, I was praying about it, I wanted to be sure even though at that moment, I didn’t have much to do apart from my ambassadorial deals. I didn’t want to go into this but I have to say this because of how the conversation is going“.
She continued that “I told my previous employers that I wanted to hold on from December. Let’s think of something new to do, that’s what I said to them. I was expecting them to call and say come let’s think about what is new. However, I don’t have a contract with anybody so if nobody is minding me, I have the right to move on…I am not here to explain much. This is me, I pray about every step I make, I don’t just move”.
Speaking about how she wants to be known for her dedication to her work, she argued that, given the years of adversity and sacrifice, her success is ultimately her own doing.
“Whoever is saying what about me, I leave that person to God because I know myself and I know I have worked my way through here. I didn’t come here just for the sake of my beauty or maybe my smile. I have worked to make my smile impactful. I am here because I have worked, oh Jonnie I have worked!” she emphasised.
