Timeline
Osei Kwame Despite (born 2 February 1962) is a Ghanaian entrepreneur and a philanthropist with a foundation in music creation and knowledge of the broadcasting sector.
Osei-Kwame is the CEO of the Despite Firm Ltd, a trade company with subsidiaries in the media industry, including UTV, PEACE FM, OKAY FM, NEAT FM and HELLO FM in Kumasi.
He was named Africa Entrepreneur of the Year at the African Achievers Awards in the United Kingdom in 2021.
In 1983, he returned to Ghana with other Ghanaians who had fled Nigeria due to the country's political unrest.
Back to his country, he only had a trident cassette player and a chain-saw machine.
He started a timber contracting business with the chain-saw machine, but it was smashed by a falling tree on his first business trip.
He eventually moved on to selling cassette tapes before diversifying his business.
To show his support for the local music industry and to prioritize Ghanaian culture, he moved into radio and founded the PeaceFM at Achimota Mile 7 Junction in 1999.
The station's experiments with the Akan language paid off, as radio listeners looking for local programming abandoned stations broadcasting primarily in the Queen's language on the 104.3 frequency.
The radio industry flourished, culminating in the establishment of Hello FM in Kumasi and OkayFM in Accra, as well as peacefmonline.com.
