This is one thing that is pretty obvious to anyone who follows any of the state broadcaster’s stations, as the same old faces keep recurring and new talent rarely gets a chance to shine.

Joe Lartey On Past Ghanaian Leaders- ‘Kuffour Has Been The Best Of The Fourth Republic’
Ace broadcaster Joe Lartey, famous for the phrase ‘Over To You, Joe Lartey’- is pushing 90 years now, but still has quite a lot to say on the Ghanaian political situation.
The 89 year old appeared on Starr Chat Wednesday with Bola Ray, and touched on several issues. When asked to comment on the best leader this country has had since the return to constitutional rule in 1992, he chose President Kuffour, his favourite by a mile.
