Manasseh Azure has subtly confirmed that he’s a big-time hypocrite and a biased journalist with his latest revelation on why he can and will never severely criticize Pastor Otabil.
According to Manasseh who is a known critic of the state of affairs of the country and social media commentator, the strong bond he shares with Pastor Otabil will never allow him to bash him just like he has been doing to Nana Addo, John Mahama, Kennedy Agypong and the several others he holds opposing views with.
Manasseh Azure made this known after some netizens mounted pressure on him to find out why he never spoke about Otabil during the days of the banking crisis but he has published a full article on Dag-Heward Mills who is the founder of Lighthouse Chapel.
In a lengthy Facebook post, he wrote;
There are people in our lives that you don’t go out to attack them after the story has been told because of the relationship you have with them. I don’t want such people to be disappointed in me because they didn’t expect certain comments from me. If you cannot defend them, the best thing is to keep quiet so I didn’t find calls to speak about Otabil a wise thing to do. “
In journalism, there are two things; the news and opinions but sometimes when the news is presented, you can give opinions. When Otabil’s issue came, the news was reported and there were no opinions likewise the lighthouse stories. I want to put on record that I will never come out to give any opinion.
When the DKM, Duffuor, Kofi Amoabenh and the other banks collapsed, nobody called me to comment so why were they mounting pressure and condemning me for not saying anything.”
