Tensions Flare on UTV’s Adekye Nsroma as Jennifer Queen and Hopeson Adorye Clash On-Air

A dramatic confrontation unfolded on live television on April 17, 2025, during UTV’s popular morning show Adekye Nsroma, involving Jennifer Queen Deputy Communications Director of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), and Hopeson Adorye, a leading member of Alan Kyerematen’s Movement for Change and former Deputy National Security Coordinator.

The clash, which has since gone viral on social media, began when Jennifer Queen accused her fellow panelists, including Hopeson Adorye, of constantly interrupting her while she spoke. In a frustrated tone, she declared her intention to also interrupt them whenever they had the floor.

The situation quickly escalated after Hopeson suggested to the host that Jennifer had finished her submission and that another panelist should be allowed to speak. Tensions boiled over when Hopeson remarked, “I trained her in communications, a comment that visibly irritated Jennifer.

You trained who? You’ve told all your people that you trained me and they are mocking me…. If God repaid evil, you wouldn’t be alive by now.

The heated exchange did not stop there. As emotions intensified, Hopeson asked Jennifer angrily, are you mad?” for raising her voice at him. Jennifer’s response was equally fierce:

Am I mad? Like how? You can’t leave your wife there and come here to insult me.

The verbal spat caught the attention of viewers and sparked widespread reactions online, with many expressing concern over the breakdown of civility and professionalism on political talk shows, especially in an election year.

This latest altercation adds to the growing list of heated encounters among political communicators, raising calls from the public for greater decorum and mutual respect during televised debates.

UTV has yet to officially comment on the incident, but it has become a trending topic across various social media platforms, with many questioning the conduct of political figures in public discourse.
