Much like the seismic tremor that periodically rock Asia in the name of Hurricanes, the news that the renowned and celebrated radio presenter, Gabriel Abeiku Aggrey alias Abeiku Santana was pelted with ice water when he MC this year’s Ghana Music Award UK event was as shocking as anything one can think of.
Already people have expressed reservation about the way the event was organized so when the issue of Abeiku cropped up people began to read meanings into it so when WFET-105 jet intercepted his flight mid-air at Adom 106.3 Fm during his favorable Drive Time Hour - Offie Kwanso he categorically denied the allegation and described it as wicked, ridiculous, barbaric, vexatious, irresponsible and a calculated attempt to discredit him of his hard won reputation.
“What happened was that, I was the MC (Master of ceremony) for the occasion and during the course of the show there was some scuffles within the crowd so in an attempt to control the situation as Mc I cautioned the prospective trouble makers to halt it since we are not here to cause commotion; then out of the confusion somebody in the crowed threw one small ice cube onto the stage, which was even highly recognized, that was all Amess.” He exclaimed.
Abeiku is one of the best drive time hosts in the country today and the presenter of Offie Kwanso on Adom Fm. As the name implies he commutes listeners from the capital city to their places of abode.
He is able to reach his wide audience with good music from Gospel, Highlife, Hiplife, R&B, Reggae among others in a very smooth and exciting manner especially his motivational messages and LPMs.
During this period he captivates his audience with vast store of information and text messages before he allows his audience to participate in the segment that seems to have endeared his listeners most, Kyenkyen Kuma! He is also the host of TV3 entertainment program, Fusion, and CEO of Strategic Communication Ltd.
Life has not been that rosy for this young determined man. In 2001-he left the shores of Ghana for Europe for greener pastures.
His sojourn outside the country didn’t help him much and he decided to returned home to join Adom Fm in 2002 as a presenter of Offie Kwanso and in 2004 the brother decided to improve his skills in communication so when he gained admission in Iona University in New York he didn’t hesitate to grab the offer but later on he changed his mind to go to the New York Para-legal school and legal studies to read law respectively.
But Konkonsa-Ba and my cousin Apumakoshie of Abossey Okai want to know what has happened to that. It is a question oh……
