The countdown to the 28th Ghana Journalists Association (GJA) Awards has begun, and Ebenezer Madugu, a phenomenal broadcast journalist with the Tobinco Media Group, is among the top nominees vying for a spot in the limelight.
The awards ceremony is set to take place this weekend at the majestic Manhyia Palace in Kumasi, with the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, gracing the occasion as host, and President H.E. John Dramani Mahama as the special guest of honour.
The GJA Awards is a revered platform that recognizes and celebrates excellence and professionalism in Ghanaian journalism.
Ebenezer Madugu’s nomination is a testament to his exceptional skills and dedication to quality journalism. With years of experience in the field, Madugu has built a reputation for crafting compelling stories that spark meaningful conversations and drive change.
Some of his notable works include “…And Oto Addo Can Win the World Cup,” a thought-provoking piece that explored the role of leadership and emotional intelligence in transforming Ghanaian football.
The article not only generated widespread discussion but also led to reforms in the broadcasting of the Ghana Premier League.
Another standout piece, “Inside the EC Balloting Controversy,” shed light on the truth behind rumours of ballot swapping during the Electoral Commission’s exercise, promoting transparency ahead of the national elections.
Madugu’s investigative reporting skills were also on full display in “Roman Fada: The Unexpected Power Player in Ghana’s 2024 Election,” which analyzed the potential influence of smaller political parties on the outcome of the polls.
Madugu will be going up against top-notch journalists from prominent media houses, including the Daily Graphic, TV3, GNA, JoyNews, and others.
If successful, his recognition will mark another major milestone for the Tobinco Media Group and underscore the growing impact of quality journalism in shaping Ghana’s democratic and sporting future.
The GJA Awards promises to be an unforgettable celebration of journalistic excellence, and all eyes will be on Ebenezer Madugu as he awaits the announcement of the winners.
