He said it is good that they singled out his medium for the donation, adding that “this serves as a form of motivation as we fight bad news and it is a boost for us to do more for the overall development of the country.” He recalled that the company at one time suffered bad press but with professionalism exhibited by The Calabash in investigating and reporting accurately certain related issues devoid of subjectivity, the company was vindicated of all alleged and unfounded wrong-doing. He thanked and appreciated them for the items.
