Social media users accused the TV network of deliberately ‘orchestrating’ the glitch over their ‘beef’ with their former Anchor who is now with GhOne TV.
Background
The Popular TV presenter, Nana Aba Anamoah’s made a “prank” on Twitter which turned out to be an expensive one, as her employer TV3, decided to suspend her “until further notice.”
The management felt embarrassed following the social media frenzy and subsequent media reportage on Nana Aba’s trolling on Twitter and other social media platforms.
A disciplinary committee was subsequently set up by TV3 to look into the matter while the board of the company also thoroughly discussed it at a meeting, where Nana Aba explained to the management that the owner of the pictures sent the photos to her which she tweeted to suggest that she was at Old Trafford but indeed she was not.
She subsequently joined GhOne TV where she serve as host of State of Affairs, a current affairs program.
