As the general election draws closer, the creative industry stakeholders seek to know which political party has the best plans for them.
In tandem with this, Joy FM is offering a thought-leadership platform for political parties to present their policy ideas on Ghana’s tourism, arts, and culture.
Dubbed MANIFESTO DEBATE ON CREATIVE ECONOMY, the programme will air live on Joy FM and Joy Prime on September 14, 2024, from 2 PM to 6 PM.
The manifesto debate will be the 5th edition of Joy FM's Showbiz Roundtable, a thought-leadership discussion of progressing topics plaguing the entertainment space.
Speaking for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) will be Sadiq Abdullai Abu (NDC Parliamentary Candidate for Okaikoi Central Constituency) and Rex Owusu Marfo (Member of NDC Manifesto Committee).
From the camp of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) will be the Deputy Minister of Tourism, Arts and Culture, Mark Okraku-Mantey and the Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Tourism Authority (GTA), Akwasi Agyeman.
The programme will be in three parts: a session for presentations of the parties’ policy ideas for the creative sector; a question and answer session moderated by the host. This will be based on the promises made in the manifestoes vis a vis other activities of the parties in the past. Speakers from either side would be allowed to cross-examine each other; and an open forum involving input from creative industry stakeholders present at the programme.
This thought-leadership event hosted by Kwame Dadzie, produced by Philip Nai and Anita Teye, is powered by Showbiz A-Z, your most authoritative entertainment talk show in Ghana.
In the meantime, the NPP will be launching their manifesto on August 18 while the NDC outdoors theirs on August 27, 2024.
