Ghana: GRIDCo Board Chair honoured
Board Chairman of Ghana Grid Company Limited (GRIDCo), Ambassador Kabral Blay-Amihere, has been honoured for his media activism which contributed to free speech, media training and policies that led to the expansion of press freedom in the Republic of Ghana.
Kabral Blay-Amihere, a veteran journalist, was at the forefront of media activism from the 80s until the early 2000s.
He was honoured by the Centre for Media and Culture alongside Ghana’s former President, John Agyekum Kufuor, and 13 others.
GRIDCo’s Board Chairman is also a former Ghanaian Diplomat, former President of the Ghana Journalists Association (GJA) and Chairman of the National Media Commission (NMC).
He was in the media practice for 25 years.
In a post sighted on GRIDCo’s Facebook page, the transmission company congratulated the GRIDCo Board Chairman for his continued service to Ghana.
There is a good reason why you should support the African Editors. Not everyone can afford to pay for news right now. That is why we keep our journalism open for everyone to read, including in Ghana. If this is you, please continue to read for free. But if you are able to, then there are three good reasons to support us today.
1. Our quality, journalism is a scrutinising force at a time when the rich and powerful are getting away with more and more.
2. We are independent and have no billionaire owner pulling the strings, so your money directly powers our reporting.
3. It doesn’t cost much, and takes less time than it took to read this message.
Help power the African Editors' journalism for the years to come, whether with a small sum or a larger one. If you can, please support us on a monthly basis from just 1 Ghana Cedi through mobile money number: 0599896099/ +23359989609 and you can be rest assured that you’re making a big impact every single month in support of open, independent journalism. Thank you.
