Broadcast journalist Inusah Hamza Lansah has responded to critics following his decision to leave Sagani TV and join Tolon Multimedia, insisting that he has no regrets about the move despite facing backlash from some supporters of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
In a Facebook post shared days after announcing his departure from Sagani TV, Lansah made it clear that he remains unfazed by the criticism surrounding his career decision.
”I have no intention of paying attention to those criticizing my decision to join Tolon Multimedia. My decision is mine to make, and I’m proud of it,” he wrote.
The journalist revealed that he has received overwhelming support from within the NDC, stating that about 20 Members of Parliament and several prominent party figures have personally congratulated him on his new role.
According to him, the encouragement he has received from respected personalities far outweighs the negative comments from a few critics.
”That encouragement means far more than the negativity from a few critics,” he added.
Lansah also emphasized that while everyone is entitled to their own opinion, he remains committed to his professional responsibilities and is focused on the opportunities ahead.
He concluded his message with the Dagbani phrase, “Dibi nyema,” a positive expression often used to wish someone well or signify optimism.
His post has since generated mixed reactions on social media, with supporters applauding his confidence and others continuing to question his decision to leave Sagani TV. Despite the debate, Lansah’s latest statement suggests he is determined to move forward and concentrate on the next chapter of his broadcasting career.

The National Lottery Authority (NLA) has presented a GH¢10 million dividend to the Government of Ghana, marking the Authority’s return to contributing directly to the Consolidated Fund.
The cheque was presented by the NLA Board and Management to the Minister for Finance, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, with Director-General Mohammed Abdul-Salam leading t8he Authority’s delegation.
The payment represents the NLA’s first dividend contribution to the state since 2017, according to reports on the presentation.
Dr. Ato Forson welcomed the development but stressed that the contribution should not be treated as a symbolic gesture. He called for sustained efforts by the NLA to improve its revenue generation and deliver greater financial value to the state.
The Finance Minister further disclosed that the Ministry of Finance, in collaboration with the NLA and the Attorney-General, is reviewing existing revenue-sharing agreements involving the Authority. According to him, the review is intended to address arrangements that may have limited the revenue accruing to government.
In a statement shared on his Facebook page, NLA Director-General Mohammed Abdul-Salam said the dividend reflects the Authority’s renewed focus on efficiency, transparency and revenue generation.
He said the NLA would continue working to strengthen its operations and contribute meaningfully to national development through its statutory mandate.
The GH¢10 million payment is therefore being positioned as part of broader efforts to improve the NLA’s financial performance and strengthen its contribution to Ghana’s public finances.
The NLA has also urged the public to remain vigilant against fraudsters and scammers who may seek to exploit the Authority’s name for fraudulent activities.
