The respected journalist had been a fixture of Kessben's morning programming since arriving at the station in September 2024.

His 'Maakye' show drew regular audiences with its mix of newspaper reviews, political commentary, business discussions and social affairs, establishing him as one of the familiar voices in the Ashanti Region's media landscape.

His exit has caught many fans and industry observers off guard, given how quickly he had become embedded in the station's identity.

Many followers took to social media to express gratitude for his contributions to Kessben and to wish him well as he moves into the next phase of his career.

Rumours suggest his next stop could be Obaapa TV and Radio, a newly launched media outfit. However, that report remains unconfirmed, and his next move has yet to be officially announced by any party involved.
