Assin Central MP Kennedy Agyapong publicly reprimanded, in his usual style, an "unbridled" journalist with the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) for not asking him "smart" questions; MyNewsGh.com ranked.

BBC interviewer Thomas Naadi posed the question of knowing he had contributed to Ahmed's death as "hogwash", saying the journalist should "ask intelligent questions".

"The motive behind … the broadcast of these images was to warn Ghanaians of this type when they will come to their homes, because that's what they do," the legislator said. .

Mr. Agyapong also sympathized with the family of the murdered journalist, adding that Ahmed was exposed to many dangers because of the nature of his work, he told the BBC.

Earlier, the controversial NPP legislator said the BBC was a false media entity because their story about Suale's murder was skewed to favor Anas.

In an interview with Kofi TV and monitored by MyNewsGh.com, the controversial MP expressed his disappointment with the BBC, saying his report on Ahmed's death implicated him.

Kennedy Agyapong declared his disappointment in a statement on two: "The BBC also went on an inexpensive report that I called for his (Ahmed's) head."

"They (BBC) are stupid. They depreciate journalism because they use the false information of Anas, "he slammed.

The MP, who is also president of Kencity Multimedia, continued, "Watch how CNN broadcasts its news and how the BBC broadcasts its own. As for the BBC, they depreciate.

"Anas would not have been able to use CNN as he had used BBC. He belittles their report because they do not check their information before doing an online report with the video published by Anas, "he added.
