Renowned Ghanaian satirist and television host, Kwaku Sintim-Misa, popularly known as KSM, has lauded Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin for his open-mindedness and willingness to engage in constructive dialogue.
In a video shared online, KSM revealed that after a critical segment he aired about Afenyo-Markin, the politician reached out to him not in anger, but with a desire to clarify certain points.
“After I did a segment on Alexander Afenyo-Markin, he texted and gave me a call, saying he wanted to explain a few things to me because he felt I didn’t fully understand what I was saying, considering how harsh I was on him,” KSM recounted. “I was very shocked at how he took his time to explain things to me.”
Impressed by the Minority Leader’s approach, KSM invited him to appear on The KSM Show to provide further clarification, particularly on the issues where he had been critical.
“It’s a mark of not just a true politician but a noble human being who can hear criticism about himself and call for an explanation,” KSM remarked.
The veteran satirist further extended an apology to Afenyo-Markin for misjudging him on certain matters, acknowledging that his perspectives had been corrected after their discussion.
This gesture of humility and dialogue between the two public figures has sparked conversations about the importance of constructive criticism and mutual respect in Ghana’s political and media landscape.
