UNESCO And Farm Radio International Pushes NCA To Grant More Frequencies To Communities.
The Unite Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in collaboration with Farm Radio International have asked the National Communication Authority (NCA) to grant more frequencies to communities in order to engender the sprouting a lot of community radios.
In a statement, UNESCO said that “ Government must endeavour to release more frequencies to community radio stations and protect the development of community radio stations in Ghana”.
The statement came as necessity as we celebrate World Radio Day today in order to acknowledge the relevant of radio and how radio contributed to the development of a society and a country.
The statement added that “ owners and managers of radio stations should also ensure inclusion and fair representation on programs by including the youth, minority, women, and physically challenged”.
This year World Radio Day is entitled “Diversity in the use of Radio”. Radio has become part and parcel of everybody and I wonder how the world would be without radio and has been one of the most accessible and affordable medium of communication.
Radio has kept its prominence alive even in the age of newer discoveries.
The statement has also advised that this year is election year and all must endeavour to use radio responsibly by encouraging people and teams with diverse skills, experiences, knowledge, orientation to work, produce or to contribute to radio programs as a requirements for diversity in radio.
Best Wishes to all owners, broadcasters and worker of radio stations “Ayekoo” and “Happy Word Radio Day”.
