It’s Wrong To Arrest Him: Manasseh Azure Throws Support Behind Captain Smart Over His Arrest

Freelance journalist Manasseh Azure Awuni has disclosed some main reasons why it’s purely unfair on the part of ace media personality Captain Smart over his arrest by NIB.

But he believes the police or state institution can sue him if his comment is related to the state eg. It’s a criminal offense, act 29 section 208. Publication of False news, misinformation, defamation, insulting the state,

The astute founder of the fourth estate investigative firm mentioned that “If Captain Smart’s arrest is because of his galamsey comment about the president, then it’s wrong”.

He however made it known that he doesn’t like the approach of captain smart with his delivery on his shows regarding matters but it’s not a criminal offense. Those he insults can sue him. The police and NIB should not be involved.

Here are some comments from Ghanaians:

• He should be allowed to prove his allegations against those involved in galamsey.

• Is it the arrest that is wrong or the commentary which is wrong? Please be specific for clarity.

• My brother what’s wrong? He has been picked up to provide evidence that shows the president is involved in illegal mining.
