Lawyer for the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Bernard Antwi Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi, has urged dialogue following the suspension of three radio stations under the Wontumi Multimedia Company Limited. The National Communications Authority (NCA) suspended 95.9 FM in Accra, 101.3 FM in Kumasi, and 101.3 FM in Takoradi over breaches of broadcasting regulations. The infractions included unauthorised use of Studio-to-Transmitter Link (STL) frequencies and operating from unapproved transmitter locations. The action followed the expiration of a 30-day grace period granted by President John Dramani Mahama for defaulting stations to rectify violations. Speaking on Eyewitness News on August 12, with Umaru Sanda Amadu, Mr. Appiah-Kubi said there was a need for engagement between the NCA and Wontumi Multimedia to identify and address shortcomings. “I think there’s a need for us to comply with the directive. We have to meet the requirements under the law, and that is what the regulator expects us to do. “Granted that the expectations were not met, I think that there’s a need for us to engage and see where the shortfalls are and do as much as we can to fulfil the expectations and get back to normalcy,” he proposed.
