The Minister of Tourism and Creative Arts, Catherine Abla Afeku, has announced plans to soon launch a new tv station focusing on the works of two Ghanaian art legends.
The impending launch of Daddy Lumba TV and Agya Koo TV, Afeku says, are part of efforts to promote local content to Ghanaians.
Both tv stations would run exclusively on mobile phones.
“[We are] in the business of placing Ghanaian content at the disposal of viewers throughout the world and the artistes are signed on to produce popular content, including already existing content, that will run as a series in the name of the artistes…” Afeku said.

“This Sunday [February 4] at the Accra Mall, we are launching Agya Koo TV. It’s a mobile TV platform that will be in an effort to promote local content.” she added.
Both Agya Koo and Daddy Lumba are tourism ambassadors signed on by the government to help promote tourism in Ghana. Many have noted that they both also campaigned quite extensively for Nana Akufo-Addo during the last elections.
