Les Ross fan, Prince Akwasi joins BRMB to host new show

Former radio personality from Ghana and big Les Ross fan, Prince Akwasi is joining BRMB to host a soul and RnB show.

Now a pharmacologist, Prince’s journey to BRMB started three weeks ago when he visited the studio to express his admiration for Les Ross.
During his visit, Prince mentioned that he’d worked on various stations in Ghana before relocating to the UK to pursue a career in microbiology. Inspired by Les Ross, he decided to reignite his passion for radio!
Prince says: “Les is my hero in broadcasting, and my family grew up with him. For me to be on the same station as Les Ross has made my community very proud.”
Paul Ellery, BRMB’s Programme Director added: “It was a stroke of luck to find Prince. He’s a great guy and will become a great broadcaster here in the UK, thanks to the experience he gained on radio in Ghana.”
Prince with Friday nights Soul and RnB can be heard on BRMB from this Friday at 11pm.
