There’s been a lot of award schemes in the country that reward hard working sports journalists each year
RTP, National sports journalist Awards, People’s choice awards, National Communication awards, GJA awards etc Are the few awards schemes that I can think of
I want to take the opportunity to commend all these schemes for helping the sports journalism by giving a sense of target and also motivation for sports journalists in the country.
Nonetheless, these awards schemes put more premium on those we see, hear their voices on our media platforms and pay little attention to the ever tiring producers who sets programs up for their host, presenters and panelists.
Is my hope, going forward a lot of categories will include men and women whose faces and voices are not heard but do a lot to ensure a good show by a particular media house.
This portal has outlined its top 10 best sports producers in the country:
First on my list will be Stephen Tetteh (Continental) of fox fm before his exit, Tetteh was all in one, monitoring fox sports programs from afar, topics for discussion was always on point, resource personnels who are called into the program are on point. A lot of revelations comes out of the program, after the program those fillas and interviews done are always transcribed and share on various platforms, Stephen Tetteh is believed to be a good commentator and a dedicated worker.
The second on my list is Astu Sebe of Nhyira fm, Nhyira sports is one of the best in the country with top class Analysts, their topics and the caliber of resource personnels Astu Sebe gets on their show are always solid and on point. The reason why Astu is not my number is the fact that I hardly see their transcribed interviews.
The 3rd on my list is the production team of CITI TV/FM, in my attempt to find out who the head of production is, I was told all the people we see on the screens and hear are all part of the production team, so one can understand why the team clicks so well.
My 4th on the list, Nathaniel Obeng of Angel Fm Accra, one would’ve thought the less than a year show will struggle for listenership but that’s is not the case, topics and the resource personnels that are brought on the show clearly tells the producers for the show is a top class.
Benjamin Owusu of Atinka Fm, having Produce, Kofi Asare Brako and Saddick Adams in the past and even having to produce a show that proper his presenter, Saddick to win GJA Journalists of the year in 2018 shows the caliber of producer he is. One would’ve thought Atinka sports will struggle having lost a big ‘fish’ like Saddick, but Benji has stepped up his game and still producing content that has held Atinka Total sports as the best Afternoon sports show in the country.
My 6th on the list is Angel Tv’s Michael Adjei, after the show went through a re-branding, no tv sports show comes close especially during this covid-19 period. All thanks to the Production team headed by Michael Adjei.
Mr George Lamotey of GTV Sports plus is the next on my list, in such a period where the Coronavirus pandemic has made things difficult for mankind, GTV Sports Plus has managed to bring back a lot memories by showing memorable games in the past which studio discussions and reactions have been so huge.
Bismark Koomson (sikapa) of otec Fm Kumasi will be on my list for his dedication and passion for his show, his hard work has made his show one of the best in the country.
Last but not the list is Gideon Kwame Boateng of Oyerepa, Gideon has shown he is a good producer for making his show one of the best in the country.
