The Editor of the Accra Mail Newspaper, Alhaji Haruna Atta said the cynics should leave Ben Dotse Malor alone to do his job as the President?s Communications Adviser and Spokesperson.
The President?s appointment of the former BBC Presenter sparked a wave of criticism and media discussion.
Some people such as Communications Expert Professor Audrey Gadzekpo, senior statesman K B Asante and political activist Dr Sekou Nkrumah had reservations with Malor?s appointment.
Haruna Atta, who was initially linked to a job at the Presidency however in an interview on Radio XYZ?s Breakfast show with Awudu Moro last Thursday, said the critics must leave the President and Mr. Malor alone to do their job.
?Why can?t we as a people be positive?Ben is a professional. The President has the prerogative to appoint people.
?It is in the Constitution, he feels he wants a spokesman and he appoints the best, what is wrong with it??.
?Why don?t we as Ghanaians accept certain actions with good faith and allow good will to prevail. I think Ben?s selection by the President was an inspired decision and I think Ben should prove his critics wrong? Haruna Attah said.
