Group gives NCA one week ultimatum to reopen Radio Gold, XYZ

Pressure group, Free Media Vanguards, has petitioned the National Communications Authority (NCA) and given them a one week ultimatum to reopen some radio stations shut down by the authority.

The petition was presented to the NCA after a massive demonstration which was joined by the minority in parliament

The group described the NCA’s action as an abuse of its powers and suppression of press freedom.

Two major pro-opposition stations, Radio Gold and Radio XYZ were the first set of stations closed down for breaching Electronic Communications Regulations.

This has led to complaints that the NCA action was politically motivated ahead of the 2020 elections

Former President John Mahama had also described the action as politically motivated.

The Minority also believes that the state action “has created a climate of fear, impunity and arbitrariness” hence the need for “an unwavering and formidable resistance from all those who believe in true democracy and constitutionalism.”

It also condemned the closure of the stations and described it as crude, selective and “reminiscent of how brutal dictators operate.”
