God forbid, no one can pay us – KSM rejects claims that his nation-building advocacy is politically funded

Ghanaian satirist Kwaku Sintim-Misa, known as KSM, has vehemently denied allegations that his advocacy for national development is financially motivated. In a Facebook post and on-air comments, KSM stated that his dedication to Ghana's progress stems from a desire to contribute, not from seeking financial gain. He expressed frustration that some, including educated colleagues, have suggested he receives funds due to his views.

KSM emphasized that nation-building sacrifices should not be seen as financially driven. He stressed that those promoting such claims must identify the alleged sponsors. KSM clarified that his discussions on nation-building were not sponsored by anyone, and he challenged those making allegations to provide proof. He affirmed that neither he nor his team has received financial incentives for their advocacy.

KSM recounted how his producer, initially considering opportunities abroad, chose to stay and collaborate on his programme, illustrating his commitment to Ghana's development. This decision reflects a willingness to work and build in Ghana rather than seek financial opportunities elsewhere. Addressing the allegations publicly, KSM aimed to clarify that financial motivation was never the impetus for his advocacy.
