“We will give them this platform to air all their albums and when they are doing any programme and they want we will advertise for them for free. So we advertise for you and then you bring your music videos so that we play them for you. That’s what we are going to do,” he said.
Under the leadership of Dr George Akuffo Dampare, the Ghana Police service has undertaken immense logistics and image transformation with the TV station owned and managed by the Service being the latest initiative.
