In other news, Bridget Otoo, a former TV3 Presenter, says Captain Smart's suspension by Angel FM would not have happened if her former boss, Osei Boakye was in charge.

On Thursday, May 6, 2021, YEN.com.gh reported that the host of the station's morning show, Anopa Bofour, had been taken off the airwaves. It was later confirmed by Kwadwo Dickson, the station's General Manager. It is believed that Captain Smart made some not-so-nice comments about people in government. Some people believe his suspension is a form of power play to gag the media, and Bridget Otoo has expressed her view on the matter.

"This is why Osei Boakye - former editor of TV3 was different, a politician would dare not tell him to take a presenter off or replace with a presenter they like," commented Bridget Otoo. "But these new media managers, some square pegged would jump cos they don’t even know the job!"
