JoyNews’ current affairs programme, The Probe, has been crowned the Best Radio/TV Programme (English) at the 29th Ghana Journalists Association (GJA) Awards.
The prestigious recognition, announced on Saturday, November 8, 2025, at the Manhyia Palace in Kumasi, affirms The Probe's standing as Ghana's leading platform for in-depth, high-impact journalism and analytical discussion in the English language.
This significant win is a major highlight for The Multimedia Group Limited (MGL), Ghana's largest independent media organisation, which demonstrated a strong performance across the awards.
MGL’s platforms collectively secured numerous accolades, underscoring its continuous commitment to quality and influence across both English and vernacular media markets.
