Paul Adom Otchere, journalist and Board Chairman of the Ghana Airports Company Limited, has faced harsh criticisms from some Ghanaians for severally disrespecting Mussa Dankwah, Global InfoAnalytics, and dismissing his works on his TV program before the elections.
After Mussa Dankwah's poll prediction that the NDC would win the elections and secure a majority in Parliament, Paul Adom Otchere took to his TV program to mock the research work of the Executive Director and Head of Global Research at Global InfoAnalytics.
According to Adom Otchere, Mussa Dankwah's polls lacked credibility, further describing him as a disgrace to researchers in the country.
However, after Mussa Dankwah's poll predictions for the 2024 general elections proved to be entirely accurate, with the NDC winning decisively and securing the majority of parliamentary seats, some Ghanaians have expressed disappointment in the broadcaster for engaging in actions that violate the moral ethics and principles of journalism.
Some critics believe that Adom Otchere's partisan sentiments led him to disrespect the research work and stray from his professional duties.
This has caused him to trend on X for Wednesday, December 11, 2024.
Other trending topics are Ebi Bright, Eugene Boakye Antwi, Titus Glover, Ghana Gas, Woyome.

it’s disheartening to see how far Paul Adom-Otchere strayed from being a respected journalist to becoming an unapologetic mouthpiece for a political party. His "Good Evening Ghana" show repeatedly dismissed the genuine concerns of Ghanaians, offering weak…

Unfortunately, and for whatever reason behind his presentations, Paul Adom Otchere ATTACKED Mussah Dankwa and his works, instead of sitting down and thinking about how the man got into what he was doing. Partisan politics makes people lose their sense of reasoning in this GH.

This man should never forgive Paul Adom Otchere for the nonsense he threw at him.
