Fiesta Tv, a 24 hour Ghanaian entertainment, music channel which is a subsidiary of the EIB group after being officially launched in September yesterday in a press briefing at the Accra City Hotel enthusiastically announced its strong presence now in 48 African countries via DSTV channel 329 and GoTv 159.
Many times have Ghanaian musicians asked how they can go international with their craft, have their works play on a Ghanaian own, but the international platform so they could advance their gains and reach out to a wider audience. The question seemed to be a mind boggling one with no solution in sight, but thanks to Fiesta TV, we have made headways.
Jay Folley who is the channel manager in making the big announcement did not shy away from the fact that scaling up and now being in 48 countries out of the 54 burdens both the managers and content providers with a greater responsibility and added they don’t accept cash to play videos but have a special promotional package for artiste who may opt for that.
“I’m excited about this, 48 countries is no small feat, but It’s a lot of responsibility on us as managers, you as viewers and the content providers as we have a lot of work to do, not to only position Ghana as the biggest entertainer on the African continent, but also let Africa speak a big language about our entertainment to the world.” Shared by channel manager Jay Folley at the press briefing.
Fiesta, which was founded by Abraham Ohene-Djan and was acquired by the EIB group two years ago will deliver a wide range of programing which includes lifestyle, music, events, entertainment bulleting’s and many more. There is also good news for Ghanaian content providers as their content will be more patronized as compared to others.
