Sylvester Mensah urges Latenu FM to promote trade, export opportunities in Ga

Sylvester Adinam Mensah, the Chief Executive Officer of Ghana EXIM Bank, has suggested collaborating with Latenu FM, a community radio station in La, to disseminate information about business growth, trade, and export opportunities in the Ga language. At the radio station's 10th anniversary celebration, Mr. Mensah, who is also a former MP for La Dadekotopon, encouraged the station to utilize its platform to acknowledge local entrepreneurs, clarify information on financing and trade, and motivate young people to create job opportunities rather than seek them.

A strong advocate for accessible business information, Mr. Mensah expressed his willingness to cooperate with Latenu FM and other institutions to make this information more accessible to local communities. He commended the station for using Ga in its programs over the past decade and highlighted how community radio can serve as an avenue for local businesses to reach customers in a language they can understand.

Mr. Mensah emphasized that the initiative should not be confined to the Ga language and could potentially be extended to other Ghanaian languages to disseminate vital national information to a broader audience. The station celebrated its anniversary with a ceremony where it presented awards to individuals recognized for their contributions to communities in La and the wider Ga traditional area.
