Radio presenter Nana Romeo criticized Communications Minister Sam George during a September 8, 2025 broadcast on Okay FM. Romeo argued that George's attention to DSTV pricing represents misdirected priorities. The host characterized DSTV as luxury entertainment rather than essential service. Romeo referenced former President John Mahama's decision to eliminate DSTV subscriptions from government facilities without public resistance from Multichoice.
Romeo warned that eliminating DSTV would damage sports enthusiasts and Ghana's entertainment sector. The platform maintains exclusive broadcasting rights for Ghana's World Cup qualification matches and provides financial backing for domestic film projects. Romeo rejected pricing concerns by noting cost variations exist across all industries, from beverages to entertainment platforms.
The radio personality challenged George's apparent retreat from previous LGBTQ+ advocacy since accepting ministerial duties. Romeo suggested the minister should prioritize these social issues rather than television subscription costs. The presenter emphasized that George had previously championed anti-LBGTQ+ positions before assuming government responsibilities.
