Bridget Otoo Fired from Metro TV

The government of Ghana has allegedly directed MetroTV to sack the television presenter Bridget Otoo for afflicting with the NDC.

The former TV3 presenter, Bridget Otoo has been sacked a day after joining the station. It has been alleged that the government has directed owners of Metro TV to sack Bridget Otoo since she is affiliated with the NDC.

This allegation was fueled by some member of the NDCs Communications team, Anna Perry Arhin who posted that President Akuffo Addo, acting government, has directed Metro TV to sack Bridget Otoo.

According to him, the government wants her out of Metro TV because she supports John Mahama and bashes the Akuffo Addo-led administration, allegedly.

He wrote: “Are you wondering why Bridget Otoo didn’t show up on #News Night at 7 pm, Akuffo Addo/Bawumia/Nppgovernment have instructed the owners of Metro TV to sack her with immediate effect because she bashes them and a supporter of John Mahama.

Bridget Otoo was unveiled yesterday as a new member of Metro TV and was to host the station's flagship news bulletin program “News Night’’ between 7 pm and 8 pm.

However, Bridget failed to appear on the set to host the news today. This has given many people to believe or feel that Bridget is on the way of been axed from the station just a day after joining.
