e.tv now in Ghana


e.tv will be lanching soon Ghana. e.tv doesn't have s specific launch date yet.


The channel will be free, broadcasting for 24 hours a day, with some local shows (like a breakfast show called Rise and Shine and 20:00 Prime News news bulletin) as well as the channel's local South African soaps, Scandal and Rhythm City. International shows are the same as in South African, including the international soap The Young & the Restless, Fear Factor and the WWE Wrestling.


e.tv in Ghana is run as a partnership between Global Media Alliance Ghana Ltd. and Sabido Investment Ltd in South Africa that owns e.tv.
I'm waiting on official word from e.tv on this and will post an UPDATE when I get it.
UPDATE 13:55 - e.tv was super fast getting back to me.
''e.tv is excited to be involved in this new venture and looks forward to e.tv Ghana becoming a market leader in West Africa,'' says Bronwyn Keene-Young, e.tv's chief operating officer.
''Our programming is focused on the audience and what they want to watch. We will offer top-notch programming,'' says Akwasi Agyeman, chief executive of e.tv Ghana.
