‘Stubborn’ Captain Smart Launches ‘Scathing Attack’ On ‘Sick NMC’, Government Following Arrest

Broadcaster and journalist, Blessed Godsbrain Smart has vowed to never be cowed into silence following his arrest by the Ghana Police.

Captain Smart was accused of making some unsavoury pronouncements that compromise the peace and security in the country.

Following this, the NMC in a statement indicated that the host of “Onua Maakye” in his comments called for an insurrection against the state of Ghana and its institutions.

He was subsequently arrested by the Police, cautioned and released same day.

However, Captain Smart has refused to relent and has described the NMC as a ‘sick’ institution that is being controlled by government.

According to him free speech is never a crime in the country and he’ll continue to speak to power and make sure government delivers on its mandate.

“Nana, I won’t set myself ablaze but I will talk. Listen, I will not set myself ablaze because I love this country but because I love this country, I will talk. If you are having a stomach upset because of this, then you will get an appendix. We will talk. “Since when did free speech become a criminal offence?” he questioned.

“If every Ghanaian will shut up, I will never shut up. Listen, we did not vote for PDS, we did not go to the polls for you coming to tax Mobile Money [Momo], we did go to the polls so you appoint a no-nothing finance minister to collateralize virtually every other single fund in this country. Your Excellency, we did not vote for you to come and pay, your spouses, we did not vote for you to come and have a shower in the skies…

“Some organization somewhere known as NMC, you are sick; you are sick because the government is giving you some money to spend anyhow…and listen we will never shut up!” Captain Smart charged.
