A video shared on social media showed people holding back the two academics from getting physical with each other during the programme on November 15.

The two also traded accusations against each other, with Domfeh bringing up Gyampo's apparent history of sexual harassment at their school.

Domfeh accused TV3 of editing the video that was circulating online, saying it was one-sided and in favour of Gyampo.

In a Facebook post, Domfeh claimed Gyampo, who serves as the CEO of the Ghana Shippers’ Authority, attempted to punch him, but the station failed to include that part in the footage they shared online.
