A plethora of social, political, religious, and economic challenges, as well as covert graft, have bedeviled Ghana and are obstructing her efforts to progress.
These stories are conveyed in a variety of ways on a daily basis, but sometimes not in their entirety, leaving the audience wanting more.
On the economic front, residents, for example, continue to suffer in the face of mounting obstacles that threaten their livelihoods and even their survival.
As a result, the Multimedia Group Limited's Akan brands, Adom FM, Adom TV, and Asempa FM, have introduced an all-new documentary slot on its channels called Asukodo to investigate and convey these experiences.
Asukodo, an Akan word that loosely translates as "go deep into the issues," will be a mix of investigative documentaries and features that will present eye-opening and informative stories about public issues.
The first of many such films, titled Ghana's Chicken Industry: The Rot, the Mess, and the Broken Promises, will appear on Adom FM's Dwaso Nsem on Wednesday, June 1, 2022 at 8:30 a.m., and will focus on poultry production in Ghana.
It will also be shown live on Adom TV starting Saturday, June 4, 2022, at 3:30 p.m., with new series airing every week.
Mondays at 11 p.m., there will be a replay. Boakyewaa shared the account of how, nearly five years after the government's Rearing for Food and Jobs' program was launched under the 'Planting for Food and Jobs' program, the scheme's goal has yet to be realized.
She visited several chicken farms in various parts of the nation, including Accra and the Bono regions, to assess the policy's progress.
The News Team went to D.K. Ampofo Farms in Dormaa Ahenkro in the Bono Region.
Due to production issues that have been appropriately depicted in the documentary, the farms' CEO, D.K. Ampofo, who had 150,000 birds before 2019 now only has 50,000.
Ibrahim Musa, who was named Best Farmer in 2015 and had 160,000, is now down to 60,000, blaming the decline on the same destiny as DK Ampofo farms.
Despite the farmers' struggles, Agriculture Minister Afriyie Akoto insists that his ministry's 'Rearing for Food and Jobs' plan is one of his ministry's success stories.
Make a date with Adom FM & TV, your number one news radio and television station, as the first of many intriguing stories is conveyed in an engaging manner.
Asukodo will also be available on all associated social media channels, with detailed reporting available on Adomonline.com.
