He added that new programmes like 'Me Man Nti' political talk show hosted by William Evans-Nkum are geared towards holding public service holders accountable to the people for holistic development.
 
Akoma Fm's 'Obaatanpa' afternoon talk has served as a platform to solve a number of social and relationship challenges.

Sports with Gauis Nkansah, Prince Nana Egyir and Raphael Sarkodie got pundits and sports lovers tuned in weekday and weekend.

Kwantenpon Drive Show with Tony Best is the toast of afternoon entertainment, driving commuters home and easing the stress of a hard day's work. The Personality Chat segment has almost all the great entertainment personalities passing through.

The maiden 'Akan Speeling Bee' contest was a game-changer attracting high interest and participation and the number of people turning up for the Akoma Health Walk was overwhelming. As part of our corporate social responsibility, we partnered our listeners to collect over 100 pints of blood for the KATH Blood Bank.
