The outspoken Okay FM presenter said her pronouncements in the past has gotten her life threatening messages.
âMy life has been at risk, I get people attacking me every day, sending me threats on WhatsApp and other social media platforms. This is why most young female journalists are not willing to report on active politics. They would rather stay with entertainment, lifestyle and soft newsâ
Speaking on âBO ME NKOMOâ hosted by stand-up comedian, KSM, Vim Lady also said she is considering quitting active radio soon.
âI am going to stop doing active radio very soon. I want to teach because I have noticed that it is my family I will lose if anything should happen to meâŠ..see what happened to the Abuakwa MP, Late J.B Danquah Adu, a whole member of Parliament and we still do not know who murdered himâ she said.
