Adom TV, organisers of the kid talent show, Nsoromma, has debunked allegations levelled against it by a former contestant of the show.
In a recent interview with ZionFelix, Steven Nyameke, a former contestant of the just-ended season of Nsoromma, alleged that the top positions of the show, were reserved for those who could afford to pay.
According to him, the judging of the competition was never fair, as it was influenced by money and one’s ability to pay.
Adom TV has, however, debunked this allegation in a statement signed by its management. According to the statement; “the entire contest 60% votes came from independent judges and 40% from the general public via text to adjudge the winner”.
Read the full statement below:
AdomTV’s attention has been drawn to an interview and subsequent publication granted by Steven Nyameke, a contestant in the just-ended ADOMTV NSOROMMA Season 2 musical contest on ADOMTV.
In the said interview and publication by ZionFelix an online blog/blogger on Monday, 27th January 2020, Steven Nyameke is purported to have said that the verdict on the top positions was induced with money.
AdomTV by this statement seeks to refute all the allegations of bribe-taking leveled against the organizers of Nsoromma Season 2. We state without any doubt that throughout the entire contest 60% of votes came from independent judges and 40% from the general public via text to adjudge the winner.
Nsoromma is a highly competitive musical contest and recognizes Steven Nyameke as one of the kids who really put in his best, but unfortunately, there was only one spot for the ultimate prize.
AdomTV will like to assure all stakeholders and the general public that Nsoromma will continue to unearth and project the talents of Ghanaian children in a fair manner in the coming seasons.
Signed: Management
