Rap Dacta, Okyeame Kwame believes Ghanaian media has immensely contributed to the country’s underdevelopment which many are talking about.
According to him, there is the need for the Ministry of Information to organize the media houses to upgrade the information consumed by Ghanaians because the politics and finger-pointing between the political parties is interesting but it is slowing down national development”.
He noted that it’s time the media puts a spotlight on people with expertise in diverse fields who will contribute to the development of the country.
He said ” I believe it is time to hear from the neurologist,psychologist,artist,industry,CEOs,engineers,successful traders,producers ,bankers etc . We need to balance off the sensationalism with pragmatism so that we can begin to have real conversations like when is Ghana solving the problem of cancer ? Who is writing the codes for the next space exploration,when is entrepreneurship going to meet technology made by Ghanaians. Pls let’s rise above the He say She say and have conversations of Radio and tv that are targeted at national development”.
