Popular Ghanaian media personality Nana Jantuah has responded strongly to recent verbal attacks from U.S.-based Ghanaian commentator Kevin Taylor, accusing him of spreading lies and showing gross disrespect.
In a calm yet firm statement, Nana Jantuah said he was disappointed by Kevin Taylor’s conduct, especially considering their long-standing professional relationship. He described Taylor’s comments as “malicious and unnecessary,” but maintained that he still considers him a brother.
“Kevin insulted me, disrespected me, and spread lies about me, but I still see him as a brother. I won’t descend into the gutter with him,” Jantuah said.
According to the broadcaster, he has no problem with criticism but will not tolerate falsehoods aimed at damaging his integrity or political identity. “I am a proud member of the NPP, and I’ve never hidden it. But that doesn’t mean I’ll allow anyone — not even Kevin Taylor — to insult me or my party members for cheap popularity,” he added.
Nana Jantuah went on to urge media professionals to uphold respect and truth in public discussions, warning that reckless commentary only weakens the country’s media landscape. “You don’t build Ghana by tearing down everyone you disagree with,” he stated. “I’ve stood my ground in the media for years without selling my conscience.”
His mature and composed reaction has earned widespread praise online, with many describing him as an example of restraint in an era of growing tension and hostility among media personalities.
Despite the harsh exchange, Jantuah made it clear he holds no grudges. “Kevin can insult me a thousand times, but I’ll still choose peace. I’ll still call him my brother — but truth must be spoken. Enough is enough,” he concluded.
