Mama Zimbi Eyes Africa With Odo Ahomaso
Ace radio and television talk show host, Akumaa Mama Zimbi, known in private life as Joyce Akumaa Dongotey-Padi, has revealed that her ‘Odo Ahomaso’ radio show will from Wednesday, January 11, 2012, be broadcast live on Adom FMfrom 10:00pm to 12:00am instead of the usual 4 hours which run from 10:00pm to 2:00am. Akumaa has gradually become a cultural icon for her philanthropic works, humanitarian works and her ability to use the media to solve peoples’ problems. Her ‘Odo Ahomaso’ remains one of the longest running and most consistent late night shows on family, relationship, marriage and sex in the history of Ghanaian radio on Adom 106.3 FM, and is carried nationwide by 21 affiliate radio stations and 10 international radio stations.
Speaking about the need to make this drastic change to the most listened-to radio late night show both home and abroad, the Programmes Director of Adom FM, Cox Tamakloe, stated that the repackaging of the show was to give listeners the best within the shortest possible time so they could have enough rest for work the next morning.
On her part, Mama Zimbi stated that the change would also enable the smooth beginning of the television version of the show – ‘Odo Ahomaso’ – on Multi-TV, a multi channel satellite television that is serving the whole of Africa and streaming live and free on the internet.

Yhaw Hero hits the ground running with debut EP “Yours Faithfully”

After garnering so much attention and buzz, Ghanaian artist, Yhaw Hero has finally released his debut EP “Yours Faithfully”. The project is an open letter from the rapper to his fans, as he gives them more insight into his life and his thought process.
Before the EP dropped, fans got served ‘Bra Fie’ and ‘11 Six’. ‘Bra Fie’ was a song of assurance from Yhaw to his mom–who hadn’t seen her son in a while, that he would return once he’s made it on the streets. ‘11 Six’ on the other hand, is a song that delves into the struggles of the youth and the bad leadership that plagues our political space. It’s a song that serves as an advocacy and even a protest of the status quo.
The EP has seven songs and one feature from Nigerian star, Jeriq. It shines nonetheless, thanks to its nifty writing and production. “Yours Faithfully” has been gradually climbing the charts since its release with fans and critics already giving it a positive reception.
Yhaw Hero’s “Yours Faithfully” EP is available on all digital streaming platforms globally here: https://azuri.lnk.to/
