Reactions to comments by Captain Smart

Social media users who took to the comment section of the video shared varied opinions on the outspoken media personality's comments on Onua TV's live programme.

Richard Osei commented:

"He was fighting the previous government just to get himself an appointment from the incoming one. He succeeded by convincing fools to vote the NPP out of power, so his mission will be accomplished."

Robin stated:

"I'm sure he has gotten an appointment in the NDC government, or maybe he's playing it smart because he knows he won’t be able to criticize this government... Interesting times ahead."

Nana Poku wrote:

"I don’t think Captain Smart helps this station, considering the damage he has caused. They built this station like without him, nothing would work — but that’s no longer the case."
