Happy birthday to one of Ghana’s most prolific media personages Dr. Kwame Osei Despite who celebrated his 60th birthday. Dr. Kwame Osei Despite remains not only a foundational influence but also a pacesetter in Ghana’s media space.

Born on the 2nd of February 1962 in Agona Wiamoase, Dr. Kwame Osei Despite cultivated his place in media by starting out with music cassettes and other merchandise in Dunkwa-Offiso. He took charge of the local Ghanaian media space by setting up Peace FM in 1999. Providing a news outlet in Akan was a need that the Ghanaian masses craved and this visionary provided.
