This time, he has been nominated for the prestigious 3rd Upper East GJA Awards, sending ripples of excitement through the journalism community in the region.
The announcement, made by the esteemed Chairman of the Vetting Committee, Professor David Millar, has set the stage for a spectacular event as journalists gear up for the much-anticipated awards night.

For Ngamegbulam Chidozie Stephen, this recognition marks a significant achievement in his career. Having been honored at the regional GJA previously—first in 2019 as the Human Rights Award recipient of the year and then as the climate change award winner of the year in 2023—this nomination serves as a testament to his unwavering dedication to journalistic excellence.
