Citi FM/Citi TV’s all-women talk show, ‘Sister Sister’ has been honoured for its dedication towards empowering Ghanaian women.
The recognition which came from the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection was also to celebrate the program and the station’s efforts of championing the cause of women as part of Ghana’s celebration of International Women’s Day on Sunday, March 8, 2020.
Citi FM/Citi TV received a citation for the show at an awards dinner night organised by the Ministry at the Accra Digital Centre.
It was held under the same theme for this year’s International Women’s Day – “I am Generation Equality: Realizing Women’s Rights.”
Over the years, ‘Sister Sister’ has served as a platform for young women to have discussions on things that affect their relationships, careers and sexuality.
Part of the citation read: “The Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection in recognition of your efforts towards empowering women and girls, gives you this citation on this day 8th March, 2020 International Women’s Day to encourage you to create more space for women and girls to discuss issues that hinder their development.”
Hosted by Head of Programs at Citi FM/Citi TV, Jessica Opare Saforo and her sisters, “Sister-Sister” brings refreshing perspectives to everyday relationship challenges.
The show has been running on radio for 13 years but only a year and some months old on TV.
It airs on Citi 97.3 FM on Thursdays from 7 pm to 8 pm as well as on Citi TV on Fridays from 9 pm to 10 pm.
Citi FM has over the years won a series of prestigious awards since 2004 including BBC Africa Emerging Media House of the Year 2006, the CIMG Media House of the Year 2014, CIMG Digital Media Organization of the Year 2016 and 2017.
