Dr. Randy Abbey, a member of the Executive Council of the Ghana Football Association, has been urged not to take legal action in response to unverified and sensational allegations made against him by socialite Abena Korkor.
Abena Korkor made these allegations during an interview on Kingdom FM, and the claims have since spread widely across various platforms. Fiifi Pratt, the host of the show where these allegations were made, has issued a sincere apology to Dr. Randy Abbey.
Using the same platform where Abena Korkor made her claims, Fiifi Pratt tried to convince Dr. Randy Abbey that he should not view himself as the target of a plot aimed at damaging his reputation. Fiifi Pratt also shared his positive working experience with Dr. Randy Abbey and expressed his commitment to not allowing his show to be used for malicious purposes.
“This is a heartfelt statement from me. I have known you for a long time so this is from a good place. Last Friday, I had a conversation with Abena Korkor on this platform and there were a number of things that I wasn’t impressed with.
“Anyone who watched that interview would have noticed that I wasn’t comfortable with some of the statements she made. All I want to say to Dr. Randy Abbey is that I’m sorry big time. I take the blame for the comments because if I had not invited Abena Korkor to my show, those things wouldn’t have happened.
Fiifi Pratt further clarified the reason for inviting Abena Korkor to his Kingdom FM show. He stated that Abena Korkor was invited to discuss her newly published book, and a significant portion of the interview revolved around Korkor’s life, including her struggles with substance abuse and mental health issues, among other topics.
“I didn’t invite Abena Korkor here to discuss Randy Abbey or whatever hotel she mentioned. Abena Korkor came because she wanted us to talk about her new book. The conversation centered around her life but it was a comment from Facebook that brought about all of this. Someone asked in the comment section about her and Randy Abbey and it brought about all these issues.
“Abena started by praising Randy Abbey my brother so I thought it wise to allow her to continue because she was saying that Dr. Randy Abbey was her mentor and even given her money to go to law school. It was until she made those comments that brought about those issues.
“Once again, I want to apologize to Randy Abbey and that he should not see what happened to be an agenda. I’m not an agenda presenter and it makes no sense for me to dedicate my two or three-hour program to pursue an agenda,” he said.
