The Editor-in-Chief of the New Crusading Guide newspaper, Abdul Malik Kweku Baako, has admitted that he is a colossus when it comes to propaganda and nobody within the political sphere can beat him to it.

Baako stated on Peace FM that he started engaging in what is called 'agitprop' [agitation and propaganda] whilst growing up and he is fully prepared when folks within the political circles invite him into it.

"I've learnt the rudiments of propaganda. Growing up, we engaged in 'agitprop' and I've been involved for a very long time. We have both positive and negative sides to propaganda and I am expert in that," he noted.

Baako, who was commenting on issues relating to the global novel Coronavirus pandemic stated that he will defer to expert opinion when it comes to the nitty-gritties regarding the virus.

"At any moment, I'll defer to an expert opinion on such matters but where my strength lies, I'll argue," he said.

He added that he has developed a certain trend that when it comes to any serious discussions regarding the novel virus, he has little or no knowledge, therefore, he does not want to engage anybody on that.
