Ghanaian sports journalist Daniel Koranteng has joined the Multimedia Group.
He left Omni Media in January after seven years. The broadcaster is the latest addition to the Joy Sports team, where he expects his craft to be nurtured and honed some more.
He is keen to bring his keen analytical skill and straight-talking style across the city from Adabraka to Kokomlemle.
“I had a lovely and fulfilling time at Citi FM/TV, and I feel ready for the next step,” Koranteng says.
Daniel Koranteng is a Hearts of Oak and Manchester United fan. Also, he is probably one of the coolest and relatable characters in Ghanaian sports broadcasting today. He is however known for his withering tongue reserved only for anti-Phobians.
Most of all, Daniel Koranteng is known for his phrase, ‘Oh Chale!’. This caught on as a consequence of his humorous way of teasing rivals and self-deprecation.
