A trained lawyer, Nii
Arday Clegg who took over from Kafui Dey in September 2015 as host of Starr
103.5FM’s flagship show, Morning Starr resigned on Monday, February 13, 2017,
to some controversy without any plausible explanation.
Some media reports have it that, Nii Arday Clegg was sacked after a clash of egos with his boss over a
decision the latter made concerning the Newsroom of the station.
Having worked at Radio
Gold (2000-2006), GTV (2006-2010) Multimedia Group as a presenter of PM Express
on Multi TV (2010-2012), Nii Arday did not agree with a decision to put someone
without half of his experience over him as his direct boss.
But speaking on the
station's personality profile show, Starr Chat on Wednesday, Bola Ray though he
may have forced Nii Arday to hasten his exit from the station, he did not
necessarily sack him as being speculated.
"Nii Arday wrote
to inform me of his intention to leave in a month's time but I asked him to
resign within the next 24 hours because I thought he showed bad faith by not
telling me beforehand so I had to take a tough decision", he
stated.
He revealed that
"despite the tough decision, there is no bad blood between us. We are
still friends and he even called me this morning to wish me a happy
birthday".
According to him, he
believed Nii Arday left largely because he wanted to move on to new things and
concentrate his law profession
"Nii Arday is a
great lawyer and he moved on because he wanted to continue with his law
firm", he stated.
For the first time on Starr Chat, the regular host, Bola Ray was a guest on the show been interviewed by
Peace FM's Kwame Sefa Kayi which was part of activities marking Bola Ray's 40th
birthday.
