I refused to be who they wanted me to be – Okatakyie Afrifa Mensah

‘Jobless’
broadcaster
Okatakyie
Afrifa
Mensah
has
spoken
about
why
he
resigned
from
Angel
Broadcasting
Network
(ABN)
as
their
morning
show
host
on
Angel
FM
Accra.

There
were
rumours
in
town
the
past
few
weeks
that
Okatakyie
has
been
sacked
from
Angel
FM
Accra
but
it
wasn’t
confirmed
until
yesterday
when
the
presenter
announced
it
on
his
social
media
page.

Taking
to
his
social
media,
Okatakyie
disclosed
that
he
immediately
resigned
from
his
position
as
the
Morning
Show
host
of
Angel
FM
Accra
adding
that
he
would
communicate
his
next
move
to
his
followers
later.

As
expected
from
netizens,
they
started
questioning
him
on
the
basis
for
his
resignation
since
the
rumours
in
town
suggested
that
it
had
to
do
with
his
issue
with
preacher
Ebenezer
Adarkwa
Yiadom
popularly
known
as
Prophet
One.

Okatakyie
came
back
to
state
that
the
reason
for
his
resignation
was
that
he
refused
to
be
who
the
station
and
its
managers
wanted
him
to
be.

He
continued
that
he
is
not
going
to
change
for
anyone
because
he
is
who
he
is.

He
posted:

“WE
REFUSE
TO
BE
WHAT
THEY
WANT
US
TO
BE…We
are
Who
we
are
and
that’s
the
way,
it’s
going
to
be.
