Prominent Ghanaian media personality, radio broadcaster, DJ, and author Ohemaa Woyeje, born Harey Adjoa Owusu Kusi, has encouraged aspiring media professionals to focus on mastering their craft rather than chasing fame.
Speaking to students at her “Woyeje Media Academy”, Ohemaa Woyeje emphasised that true and lasting recognition comes as a result of excellence and dedication to one’s profession.
“It is good to aim at being popular, but aim rather at the real craft. If you get it right, the craft will bring the popularity,” she advised.
Her message resonated with students, highlighting the importance of continuous learning, discipline, and professional development in an era where many young people are often tempted to pursue instant fame through social media and other platforms.
According to the celebrated broadcaster, popularity should be viewed as a by-product of competence rather than the primary goal. She urged students to invest their time in acquiring knowledge, refining their skills, and remaining committed to excellence, noting that credibility and success are built over time.
Ohemaa Woyeje has established herself as one of Ghana’s respected media personalities through years of hard work in broadcasting, entertainment, and mentorship. Through the Woyeje Media Academy, she continues to nurture the next generation of media practitioners by equipping them with practical skills and industry knowledge.
Beyond her work in broadcasting, Ohemaa Woyeje is also making strides as an author. She recently launched her second book, “Life Beyond Opinions”, which has been well received by readers. The book explores themes of personal growth, resilience, self-belief, and rising above public criticism, encouraging readers to remain focused on their purpose despite external opinions.
Her latest publication further reflects her commitment to inspiring individuals not only within the media industry but also across different spheres of life.
As she continues to mentor young talents and share her experiences through writing, Ohemaa Woyeje’s message remains clear: true success is achieved through dedication to one’s craft, while fame is simply the reward that follows excellence.
