Renowned and Popular Ghanaian sports broadcaster, Bright Kamkam Boadu (BKB), is set to leave Pure FM, a subsidiary of Angel Broadcasting Network, in a major shake-up within the media space.
BKB will not be making the move alone. He is departing alongside his longtime associate, Oliver Khan- The Ship Dealer, as well as his full production team.
The team includes Kacylas (foreign news presenter) as well as Christian, and Maxwell.
The group is expected to join Obaapa Radio 100.9 FM and Obaapa Television in Kumasi, both owned by Dr. Lawson Kyei Manu, CEO of Lawson Herbal Center. Dr. Lawson’s growing media portfolio also includes Lawson Radio and Lawson TV.
Sources indicate that the team is scheduled to begin operations in June, a move that is already generating excitement among sports media followers.
Prior to this development, Ahenfie FM and TV were in advanced negotiations with BKB and reportedly agreed on a deal worth 6 billion old cedis. However, the deal fell through after failing to meet the financial demands of his crew, which totaled approximately 3 billion old cedis.
With this latest acquisition, Obaapa Radio and TV are poised to assemble one of the strongest sports broadcasting teams in Ghana.
Meanwhile, unconfirmed grapevine sources suggest that Pure FM itself may have been sold, although official confirmation is yet to be made.
