Watch how Hanna Bissiw walked off live show in protest of not being paired with NPP’s Kate Gyamfuah

On the Tuesday, July 2 edition of the Joy Prime breakfast show, Dr. Hanna Bissiw was paired with Hajia Safia Mohammed, a deputy women’s organizer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), to discuss matters of national relevance.

However, Hanna Bissiw decided to boycott the show after she protested the decision by the media house to line her up with someone other than Kate Gyamfua, who is the Women’s Organizer of the NPP.

According to Dr. Bissiw, she was under the impression that the show was going to be a battle of the substantives and not a ‘mismatch’ between the head of the women’s wing of the NDC and the second in command of the women’s wing of the NPP.

Before walking off the show, which was being aired live, Hanna Bissiw apologized to the NPP representative, the rank and file of the NDC, and the station for her conduct.

She, however, indicated her readiness to appear on the platform whenever her counterpart, Kate Gyamfua, is empanelled.

“Unfortunately, this morning, I will disappoint you and your station. With a lot of respect to the Deputy Women’s Organizer of the NPP, I was told that I was going to meet with my counterpart, Kate Gyamfua.

“I do have two able deputies who could have equally come, but it wasn’t until I got here this morning that I discovered that I was meeting with the deputy national women’s organizer.

“So I want to apologize to my followers, my political party, and to your viewers that I will not be able to partake in a program that I wasn’t told who I was going to meet. Anytime and any day that my colleague, the National Women Organizer of the NPP, is present, I shall be present. Next time, if it’s the deputies coming, I have two deputies so they can represent me,” she said.
