#PODCAST>>EPISODE#29: Perspective Retrospective (1): Health, & Tourism

From E K:

"EPISODE #29
Research & Co-ordination: E.K.Bensah Jr
Executive Producer: E.K.Bensah Jr

"Dear friends,

Please find below a link to the podcast of the full edition of 20 January edition of "Africa in Focus".

We spoke to Communications Officer at West Africa AIDS Foundation, Penelope Agbai, who gave us a refreshing insight into the work that her organisation does. The interview was also a reminder that even as Ebola is being quelled with some success, Ghanaians must fight the complacency of feeling that the battle against HIV/AIDs is won.

Although late in coming, still very useful was the intervention of our regular from EbolaWatch--Kobby Blay--who continued to remind us that Ebola remains real and that all of us are needed to keep ourselves safe, and remind others to do same in ridding the sub-region of the virus.

Finally, we had a very vivacious intervention from the owner of Sekalaga Tours, Mrs.Asha Boakye-Yiadom, who told us of an "All White Party" coming up on 7 March to help raise funds to take children to school.

Kindly find the link to the podcast of #AfricainFocus show on Tuesday 20 January, 2015.

We look forward to comments!
In solidarity!"

"Dear friends,

Kindly find the link to the podcast of #AfricainFocus show on Tuesday 2 December, 2014.


We spoke to Esi Cleland, former popular blogger-turned-entrepreneur, who has been co-managing Afro-Chic since 2009. She spoke to AIF about the genesis of AfroChic, and told us some of the challenges she encountered. Success has been slow, but steady and sure to the extent that after five years, AfroChic is ready to go higher places. Esi hinted us she may be reviving her very-popular blog, which at any time in 2009/2010 was attracting no less than an average of 100 comments for one post.

The second was Naa Oyo Quartey, who is an award-winning Lifestyle blogger and wedding photographer. We spoke to her about the passion she shares with Esi on why they both chose to use the internet to market their businesses at a time when selling online is not the most reliable way.

Both Esi and Naa revealed to us some of the ways in which they have been able to overcome the challenge of e-transactions.

Finally, in the different segments, we spoke to Ugonna, of the Right to Information Coalition, about a Media Encounter on 3 December about the Coalition's work. We also spoke to Health and Communication officer at West Africa Aids Foundation on what the Foundation was doing to celebrate World Aids Day, celebrated worldwide every year on 1 December.


We look forward to comments!
In solidarity!
Emmanuel""
