After Caroline Sampson, who announced the termination of her appointment with YFM on Friday, MsNaa, Joel Orleans and DJ Snoop who are top presenters of the Accra-based radio station have confirmed they have been fired.

“I want to thank Yfm and everyone out there, especially the listeners for all the love and support you’ve all shown me all these years. I am very grateful. With immediate effect though, my contract with Yfm has come to an end... Moving onto the next face of my career,” DJ Snoop tweeted on Saturday.

“After 11 yrs of knocking out the competition, my time with my family at Yfm has come to an end. Sad though I might be, I enjoyed every minute of it and am by no means done. Look for your girl cos imma be out there kickin ass and taking names,” MsNaa’s tweet, Friday, read.

Joel Orleans’s was relatively short but came with teary and heartbreak emojis. He said: “I just got fired from YFM.”







The company hasn't disclosed reasons for the termination of contracts of its top presenters.

However, many media companies in Ghana and around the world have had to lay off staff due to significant dip in revenue from advertising as a result of the coronavirus pandemic which has had an effect on companies that do business with media houses.

The pandemic has left businesses around the world counting the costs.

According to the World Health Organisation, 3,822,382 cases have been confirmed globally with the death toll at 263,658.

Ghana has so far recorded 4,012 cases of the virus, with 323 recoveries while 18 persons have died.
