Kenneth Agyei Kuranchi<\/strong><\/p>\nA book on journalism \u201cPrinciples Of Applied And Practical Journalism\u201d and authored by Kenneth Agyei Kuranchi will be launched at the College of Surgeons And Physicians on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
As a book authored by a practitioner, Ken Kuranchi as he is
\nfondly known said in a foreword that \u2018Journalism in Ghana has come a long way
\nsince the nation was a British Colony. Over the period, it has produced several
\nnotable journalists.\u2019<\/p>\n
His book he said is intended to fill \u201cthe void of a course
\ncalled Journalism that teaches journalism directly as a course\u201d and present the
\nsubject from a practitioner\u2019s standpoint, in contrast from the academic
\nperspective. <\/p>\n
The publication he went on \u2018is a notable piece of work,
\nproduced by a Ghanaian, and needs to be celebrated.\u2019<\/p>\n
With over 25 years in newspaper production the author was
\nimprisoned in 2013 for ten days by the Supreme Court after challenging the
\nintegrity of the controversial adjudication of the Presidential Election
\nPetition. <\/p>\n
Ken is the author of other books, \u2018In Search of Vengeance\u2019
\nand a children\u2019s book- \u2018Rabbit, The
\nLizard and the Sparrow\u2019<\/em>. <\/p>\nKen could not complete his secondary education but by dint of
\nperseverance he now holds a degree in Sociology and Philosophy from the
\nUniversity of Ghana, as well as a Bachelor of Laws certificate awarded from the
\nKwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology through the Mountcrest
\nCollege in Accra.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
