Throughout January, the Super Morning Show embarked on an ambitious, impact-driven campaign dubbed “Wellness Revolution”, using its platform to drive national conversations on physical health, mental wellbeing and the state of Ghana’s healthcare system.
Led by Kojo Yankson, Kojo Akoto Boateng and Winston Amoah, the programme structured the month into four focused thematic weeks, blending in-studio discussions, expert interviews and listener engagement with practical, community-based health interventions.
Week 1: Physical Health Reset
The month opened with a strong call for healthier lifestyles. The team launched the 28-Day Transform Ghana Challenge, urging listeners to commit to improved eating habits, regular exercise and routine health checks.
This was supported by free health screening exercises in selected communities and daily disease spotlights, where common health conditions were explained in simple, relatable terms, covering symptoms, prevention and treatment options.
Week 2: Mental Health Matters
Attention shifted in the second week to mental well-being. The show hosted celebrity testimonials, with public figures sharing personal experiences around stress, anxiety and emotional resilience.
The team also conducted a workplace mental health policies audit, assessing how organisations support staff wellbeing, while dedicating special segments to the youth mental health crisis, examining the pressures facing young people and gaps within Ghana’s mental health support systems.
Week 3: Healthcare System Audit
The third week adopted a more policy-focused approach, interrogating Ghana’s healthcare infrastructure.
Key discussions included a review of the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), an exploration of medical tourism and the reasons many Ghanaians seek healthcare abroad, as well as regional healthcare comparisons to measure Ghana’s progress against peer countries.
Week 4: Preventive Healthcare
The final week looked ahead, placing strong emphasis on prevention. Topics covered nutrition using Ghanaian foods, access to exercise in both urban and rural communities, and the role of traditional medicine within modern healthcare delivery.
Signature Activity: Big Workout Walk
Capping the month’s activities, the Super Morning Show organised the Big Workout Walk — a mass-participation fitness event designed to get Ghanaians moving and reinforce the importance of daily physical activity.
The walk combined music, group workouts and wellness engagements, drawing thousands of participants and transforming on-air advocacy into visible community action.
Through the “Wellness Revolution” campaign, the Super Morning Show spent January not only discussing health, but actively shaping behaviour, influencing policy conversations and mobilising communities towards a healthier Ghana.
