Popular TV Show Host Blessed Godsbrain Smart, also known as Captain Smart, has been picked up by the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB), according to media reports.
According to 3news.com which first broke the news the broadcaster was arrested by officials of the NIB when he had closed from work on Wednesday (October 19).
He is said to have criticized the Akufo-Addo-led administration for failing to end the illegal mining menace which has exposed the environment to serious threats.
The government had earlier indicated that it would file a complaint at the National Media Commission (NMC) over conduct of the radio presenter.
It is not clear whether this latest arrest is linked to those comments.
Captain Smart is an employee of Onua TV/FM owned by Media General. A social media campaign has been set in motion to get the journalist freed.
