You will be working for me, a crusty old journalist, based in and around Africa for more than 20 years. I settled in Accra a few years ago to produce radio documentary series. With a small team, for the moment we focus mostly on corporate investigations. We are located at Hechtech House in Osu where we have an office, a couple of guest rooms, and an event space.
