Workers at media outlets within the EIB Network, the media conglomerate owned by Dr. Kwabena Duffuor, have gone unpaid for almost a year, according to reports.

Meanwhile, while the workers suffer in poverty, the network’s owner, Dr. Kwabena Duffuor, is said to be spending money on a campaign to support a battle for the opposition National Democratic Congress’s flagbearership (NDC).

According to information, some workers of the network were shocked when Dr. Dufuor gave an interview on the flagship TV station of the EIB Network, GHOne and revealed that his campaign for the NDC’s 2024 flagbearership is a solid one without money problems.

Dr. Dufuor revealed he had no money problems even though the Management of various EIB Networks have been shifting the goal post on when exactly workers’ salaries can be paid.

Reportedly, in September, there was a promise to clear the salary arrears training back 12 months, however, only two out of the 12 months were paid.

Staff are said to be beside themselves with anguish because the failure to pay them would translate into a dry Christmas holiday for them.

The EIB Network is owned by businessman Dr. Kwabena Duffuor and headed by popular entrepreneur and philanthropist, Kwabena Anokye Adisi aka Bola Ray

Headquartered in Accra, the company was founded in August 2014, the media group operates Starr FM, Live Xtra, Kasapa FM, GHOne TV and Agoo TV (all in Accra); Ultimate FM and Abusua FM (in Kumasi); Empire FM and Radio 360 (in Takoradi), Agoo FM (in Nkawkaw) and the Daily Heritage Newspaper (also in Accra). The company also runs a digital group, EIB Digital.
