Media personality Blakk Rasta has descended heavily on former Deputy Communications Minister Victoria Lakshmi Hamah.
This was after the politician called for the removal of Blakk Rasta from radio.
Victoria Hamah, who is the Executive Director of Progressive Organisation for Women’s Advancement (POWA), condemned the Zylofon FM show host for describing her as a “misfit, sickle cell brain-diseased” former government appointee.
The former deputy minister had threatened to sue him for mentioning her name under a post by IMANI Ghana boss Franklin Cudjoe.
“I have been thinking saa. What can I do to get $1m fast? I don’t want any wagadri solutions,” Franklin Cudjoe’s post read; to which Blakk Rasta responded saying “Ask Victoria Lakshmi Hamah.”
“Remove this nonsense this minute otherwise I will see your stupid self in court. I have heard the many nonsense comments you have made about me in the past and I only chose to ignore your ignorance,” Hamah responded.
“When a former mis-fit, sickle cell brain-diseased, former $1million-dollar dreaming dishonorable speaks, it is laughable!”, Blakk Rasta fired back.
The politician then issued a statement and copied to the Sickle Cell Foundation of Ghana, Ghana Coalition of NGOs in Health (GCNH), National Media Commission, Ghana Journalist Association, Ministry of Gender and Social Protection, Ministry of Health, Commission for Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) and Media Foundation for West-Africa (MFWA).
POWA said it “considers the discriminatory use of sickle cells disease as an abusive attack on Victoria Lakshmi Hamah by Blakk Rasta as insensitive and an affront to persons living and suffering from the sickle cells disease. His comment clearly demonstrates his overly callous and inhumane view of people living with the sickle cells disease.”
In response to the statement, Blakk Rasta without mincing words labelled Hamah as a “desperate, cleptomaniac, $1million– thieving strategist…is such a grumpy, buffoon of a loser”.
