    The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has been urged by Ghana Journalists Association President Albert Kwabena Dwumfour to swiftly launch an investigation and apply sanctions to the individuals who attacked broadcast journalist David Kobbina at Cape FM in the Central Region.

    In addition, he has urged the Ghana Police Service to look into the incident right away and apprehend those responsible.

    He also underlined that the policeman who had called Kobbena prior to the attack ought to be disciplined for acting in an unprofessional manner.

    Dwumfour confirmed that the incident has been verified by the GJA’s preliminary investigations.

    “This is the height of impunity and we can no longer tolerate same. While condemning the attack on David unreservedly, we make the following demands.

    “We hereby serve notice that if by close of Friday, January 12, 2024, these demands (sanctions) have not been met, we shall advise ourselves accordingly,” he said.

    Dwumfour said: “But as we have already served notice, we shall fight back with every weapon we can marshal in our industry to repel the attacks on journalists as we go into Election 2024. And we can assure the evil plotters and doers that they cannot fight the media and win.”

    “We want to assure the media fraternity that we shall continue to defend their interests at all costs. This year, we shall continue our campaign against the obnoxious law used for criminal prosecution of free speech. We know they would be used as part of the strategy to silence the media, but we shall resist them with all force,“ he added.

    Prior to this, Mrs. Mavis Hawa Koomson, the Minister of Fisheries and Member of Parliament for the Awutu Senya East Constituency, denied any connection to the incident that was reported on January 4, 2024, involving the attack on Cape FM journalist David Kobbina.

    She claims that those reports are untrue and false, and that her opponents are purposefully trying to damage her reputation in order to gain political advantage.
