About Radio Broadcasting in Ghana

Radio is one of the most important and widely used media in Ghana. The country’s first station, Radio ZOY, began broadcasting in 1935 under British colonial rule. After independence in 1957, Ghana established the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation (GBC), which continues to operate public radio services nationwide.

Today, Ghana has hundreds of FM stations, both public and private, covering all 16 regions. Radio plays a vital role in informing, educating, and entertaining the population, especially in rural areas where access to internet and television may be limited. Content is broadcast in English and many local languages, including Twi, Ga, Ewe, Dagbani, and others.

Radio in Ghana is regulated by the National Communications Authority (NCA), which oversees licensing and compliance. Prominent networks include GBC Radio, Joy FM, Citi FM, Adom FM, Peace FM, and more.
