Celebrities demand apology over Kidi’s ‘humiliation’ at Accra FM
Some Ghanaian celebrities have reacted to Lynx entertainment signee, Kidi’s interview that never was on Accra FM, for being late for an interview.
The afro-pop/highlife artiste was refused an interview on the station after arriving 25 minutes late for an interview.
He was accused of being late twice on a row– an act the ‘Ayekoo Ayekoo’ show host, Nana Romeo, described as disrespectful to the show.
Nana Romeo expressed his disappointment at the “Say Cheese” singer.
“ I feel embarrassed because this is the second time you are doing this, we always announce the time to the public, but you don’t show up at the agreed time. That is not the case with other stations when you visit there, I was planning for a beautiful interview, but this can’t happen,” he said.
Kidi on his part accepted his fault and apologised.
“I apologise for this, I don’t mean to disrespect anybody, but I don’t like the way I have been spoken to this morning but I apologise”.
A few hours after the incident scores of celebrities registered their dislike for how the musician was treated demanding an unqualified apology.
This could have been handled better than this.
Time must be respected by everyone, that I agree.
But to publicly humiliate a GUEST on your show like this is unfortunate.
How many times have we showed up to interviews/events etc that didn’t start on time. https://t.co/3sxADS0cwY

Arrant hogwash! They should give us a break. Instead of condemning the dispicable act by their colleague and plead for clemency, they want him to be treated with kid gloves.
I doubt he would do that to Joy FM or Citi FM. He has to respect the show and his fan base.
He was forgiven the first time, but repeating it is a no for me. Kidi needs to be told some hometruths and Nana Romeo served it deliciously. He has learned his lessons the hard way. His cohorts should take a cue from it and stick to time because time is money!
Charley difficult times.. Very difficult times, everyone should relax small… I think a better approach than the public display of displeasure would have been better… Nontheless, i guess its the producer’s way of shifting blame so his or her very own fans dont get the wrong impression about the show, its understandable. Please guests should learn to stick to time! It shows respect to others and above all, upbolds your very own self-respect! Shows the calibre of persona you are…. However, sometimes, presenters or producers must have a consistent track of how far with their guests till they touch base. Nontheless, a public display of incidents could be a dent on the person’s image and that is something no matter what must be avoided. My thoughts ~ Kobbe O’Bryan
What are they saying self? They should all go to hell kora
