According to Mr Alfred Larbi, CEO of Oxzy FM, he travelled to Kwahu for three days with some of his workers only to return to find the sofa at the front desk is missing. He explained that what made him angry and informed his decision to suspend some members of staff is the fact that no one seemed to care about the missing sofa until he asked of its whereabouts.
“Initially, the workers thought I was kidding when I told them to find the chair or they go on suspension. I joke with them a lot but I had to stand my grounds to take this decision for the welfare of the station”, he said
The CEO who doubles as a DJ said this is not the first time something has gone missing from the premises. Accoding to him, a whole stand-by generator went missing at the radio station some months ago, and the pilfering cannot keep going on.
Mr Larbi said he will not blame it solely on the security men that is why he is suspending everyone. To him, the decision to suspend the workers and students is to instill discipline at the station. “ I know people will say I am being mean to ask about 20 people to stay away just because of a common chair but if I don’t put a stop to it now who knows what next will vanish from the station.
“I don’t really care what I am losing right now because discipline is my number one priority and until I get the chair back the presenters, newscasters and the attachment students will still be on suspension. For now, I have allowed a few DJs to play adverts but they cannot talk”, he added.
