I joined the Telecom Chamber after completing my national service as Chief Servant at Graphic Communications Group Limited, Ghana’s leading and most influential media organization. Before then I was the Chief Operating Officer of the Multimedia Group Ltd (Multi TV) between 2010 and 2011. Earlier, between 2003 and 2006, I had worked with this same Group but as its Chief Technology Officer and the General Manager of Joy FM. In between the periods I worked for the Multimedia Group, I became the Managing Director of the Optimum Media Prime (OMP), a communications, independent media and event management company.

I have also worked as the Senior Projects Engineer at Fanel Ltd and worked on the design and installation of Electrical Building Services for three of the Multi-story office complex buildings in the capital among other projects.

Ken is the 1^st Vice President of Ghana Institute of Management and Ghana Table Tennis Association and also the convener of the Media Coalition Against Galamsey. 

He is a strong believer in Ghana & holds the strong views that:

• The development of Ghana is strongly linked to Ghanaians owning the heights of the industry within the country and moving out to conquer the world.
• Ghanaians ought to know where we are from, be proud about that, and then to be able to chart the path to where we ought to be.
• We cannot develop as any other people but as Ghanaians.
• As Ghanaians, we need to support each other to fail forward and learn very quickly doing that.
• Only Ghanaians can lead the development of Ghana, nobody will do it for us.
• The time to complain is long gone, what change can I make, is the question to ask.

He is passionate about agri-business and believes that Ghana and Africa can be transformed through technology driven integrated agribusiness from production to total value addition and marketing.

His vision is to transform Abutia Kpota a village where he has his farms into a model town in 30 years through modern day agri-business.
