The National Communications Authority (NCA) has suspended nine radio stations across Ghana, including three owned by Wontumi Multimedia Company Limited, for multiple breaches of broadcasting regulations.

The affected Wontumi stations — 95.9 FM in Accra, 101.3 FM in Kumasi, and 101.3 FM in Takoradi — were cited for operating without a Certificate of Compliance, as required under Regulation 54 of the Electronic Communications Regulations, 2011 (L.I. 1991).

The NCA in a statement said the outlets also engaged in unauthorised use of Studio-to-Transmitter Link (STL) frequencies and broadcast from unapproved transmitter sites.

The action follows the end of a 30-day grace period granted by President John Dramani Mahama on June 12, 2025. The amnesty allowed more than 60 non-compliant radio stations to resume operations temporarily and correct their violations without facing fines.

By the July 12 deadline, most stations had taken steps toward compliance, but six — Donplus Multimedia Limited (105.9 FM, Ho), Dreams Ghana Media Limited (104.9 FM, New Abirem), Jam Multimedia Limited (101.3 FM, Kintampo), Jewel Group Limited (102.7 FM, Duayaw Nkwanta), Kpandai Star Community Radio (107.3 FM, Kpandai), and Unique Gateway Communication Limited (105.7 FM, Nkawkaw) — failed to act, leading to their shutdown.

The statement noted, “The National Communications Authority (NCA) has suspended the operations of nine (9) radio stations for various infractions. This action follows the expiration of the 30-day grace period granted by the President of the Republic of Ghana, His Excellency John Dramani Mahama for defaulting stations to remedy the violation of the laws and regulations governing FM radio broadcasting in Ghana.”

While the majority of other stations addressed the NCA’s concerns, the three Wontumi Multimedia outlets were found to have unresolved infractions, prompting their suspension.

The NCA stressed that it will continue monitoring the airwaves to enforce compliance with Ghana’s broadcasting laws and regulations, warning that persistent offenders risk permanent closure.
