It's amazing that it's 2014 and more importantly Season 2 for the Mpwr show on YFM already. Besides being excited to come on radio and share even more excited stories with our audience, it is an opportunity for the team E. A. Double A and DJ Jay Dee to hang out, welcome you into our cockpit and take flight!
Goals for Season 2 are to take the platform we've been blessed with and foster positive collaborations with already existing organizations/initiatives for more impact. If more hands are at the plough our impact is increased exponentially, if more like-minded young people tackle a challenge together, the solution grows from a movement to a revolution and we are excited to tell these stories.



We have new features and segments to the show: Fastest Fingerz segments where we share FREE (yes, FREE no strings attached) phone credits every episode from MTN, Vodafone, Airtel, Tigo & GLO! We also have an opportunity for Blog-To-Win blog submissions (no more than 250 words reactions to each episode) to win movie tickets as well as!



   

If that isn't exciting enough we are extremely psyched to bring you the Real Rap news update segments, the Pump it or Dump It (new/user submitted songs), Would You Rather (WWR) Question of the Day and the Power Mix of uninterrupted DJ Jay Dee Mixology at its finest with even more insightful and wonderful resource persons for this season's episodes.

The Monthly themes for Season 2:

January - DoingBetter'14

February - Partnering for Success

March - 1 GHS 1 Pocket

April - I Am What I do

Finally blogging about the Mpwr Radio Show, my 2013 labor of love.  It's almost too easy to start with: Well we started a radio show on Y FM with the 'S Means Hope' campaign from the Man of Steel (Superman 2013) movie. And yet, Ecclesiastes 7:8 admonishes that the end of a thing/matter is better than the beginning... it isn't the end of the show, but we've successfully completed Season 1 of the weekly radio conversations I co-host with Amma Aboagye , DJ Jay Dee and audio support from Kofi Taylor-Hayford.

The trials have been numerous, and despite them, I'm proud to say that my dream of inspiring and informing on Ghana/Africa's oft considered 'empty rhetoric' local  radio airwaves was realized this year. There is so so much more yet to do. We are aspiring to engage young entrepreneurs, African leaders and Creatives on off-air in shaping a better world through collaboration.

Before season 2 kicks off in 2014 though, here's to small wins!

I've posted images from guests in-studio on the show and the recent 1st Mpwr Networking Soiree (photo credit +Fiifi Baidoo ) we held to introduce the show's guests to listeners in promoting collaboration.

My name is Emmanuel aka E-man aka E.A. aka Gamor and I'm admitting that I'm a workaholic. I enjoy being gainfully productive and with that, also comes a lot of stress. One of the healthy ways I've found to recharge my productive batteries is to interact meaningfully with kids. Last month, I gleefully (yes, I'm always a big kid at heart) hang out: danced, laughed, ate with the kids at Otinibi Basic school during the library commission. A big shout-out to the team that worked on getting donations for the library over the past couple of years and to my Rotaract Club that sets the bar decently high for young Ghanaian professionals to give back, regularly.

A positive habit I picked up in college was to channel negative circumstances to positive, do-good energy and this year I made a conscious effort to participate in Rotary/Rotaract activities: Fellowship through Service.
My Presec schoolmate, Samuel Darko invited me to visit the Rotaract Club of Adentan, he previously presided over, to work on a "Blood Drive" earlier this year; and I stayed around long enough to be end up getting inducted. Adding on to my positive, doing-good is a chance to travel to local and international clubs by performing Fellowship through Service starting with Catholic University College, Sunyani. My first time in Sunyani, an amazingly warm experience with fantastic people, take a look for yourself:

The world-renowned Accra International Marathon happened the end of last month (Saturday September 29th, to be precise) and my co-host Double A and I got to interview the founder and organizer Ekua Bannerman-Richter of the annual Accra International Marathon on our MPwr radio show.

I participated in ETV/Japan Motors corporate run days earlier, so I opted to  support friends and loved-ones who participated in this marathon, and yes, get a few pictures of what ensued. Everyone who participated, from corporate teams, individual runners in the women & youth sections, was a winner. Shout out to Ekua Bannerman-Richter & her team for a superb job well done, with participants coming from across the world to participate. More pictures here: AIM pictures
