MP Alexander Afenyo-Markin says Joy FM wrongly claimed he called the NDC a sellable brand. The Effutu lawmaker sent a letter to the radio station about their May 2 broadcast. He called their headline misleading and unfair. The station took his words out of context, according to the Minority Leader. He believes the story made people criticize him without reason.

Afenyo-Markin explained he talked about political parties as brands. He said voters often pick parties instead of candidates in some areas. He used Effutu and Keta as examples where party loyalty matters most. The lawmaker never meant to praise the opposition party. He spoke about voting patterns as general facts.

The MP accused the media house of breaking fair reporting rules. He wants them to take back the story completely. The station must print a correction right away. Afenyo-Markin also demands that they say sorry for the mistake. He feels the radio station tried to make his comments seem more dramatic than they were.
