Speaking to Sammy Flex on his entertainment show on CTV, Mr Agyepong stated that if the Law does not bare citizens from Advertising Alcholic Drinks then there is no need for the FDA to Ban Celebrities from doing same since that will amount to Discrimination. If it's ok to advertise Alcohol after forinstance 8pm why stop Celebs from doing same he quizzed. I agree with Mark Darlington for taking the matter to the Supreme Court for Interpretation.

The Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) has barely two weeks to file its defense in a suit brought against it regarding portions of its guidelines. The FDA’s directives discourage the use of celebrities in the promotion of alcoholic beverages via any medium. This policy forms part of efforts by government to ensure that minors are protected from being lured into alcoholism. But this, according to the plaintiff, does not augur well for the entertainment industry and robs them of potential streams of income. In the writ issued on November 11, the plaintiff, Mark Darlington Osae said those areas of the FDA’s 2015 regulations are tantamount to discrimination on grounds of economic status, and occupation among others.
