So why are you here? If you\u2019re not making a profit, you should just say, \u2018You are stressing us, so we are folding up.\u2019 The fact that you are still here means there is some kind of benefit that endures from your operations. So why don\u2019t you calm down and say, \u2018This is your country. I\u2019m here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nana Yaa Jantuah argued that MultiChoice\u2019s continued presence in the market speaks to its profitability and they must act as such.<\/p>\n<p>She emphasised that the issue transcends politics, saying, \u201cIt has nothing to do with politics. There is no bullying anywhere.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The staffer indicated that the matter must rather be viewed through the lens of public interest and corporate responsibility.<\/p>\n<ul

government, propelled by Communications Minister Sam George and MultiChoice, over what officials have described as \u201cunjustifiably high\u201d subscription prices. <\/p>\n<p>The standoff has unfolded prominently in media headlines and on social platforms, with public expectations mounting for meaningful change.<\/p>\n<p>Nana Yaa Jantuah\u2019s comments echo earlier concerns she voiced back in August, when she joined the chorus calling for price reductions, accusing the broadcaster\u2019s foreign content of being outdated.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n        <div class=\"booster-block
