One of Ghana’s most recognised media personalities, Doreen Avio, has just landed a major new role. She has been appointed as the Public Relations Officer of the Ghana Music Awards UK, and the timing could not be more significant. The organisation is gearing up to celebrate its 10th anniversary, and they clearly wanted someone special in the driver’s seat for this one.
The news was made official through a press release on April 30, 2026. Those behind the awards were straightforward about why they chose her. They said she is exactly the kind of person they need as they prepare for their biggest year yet.
Doreen is not new to the spotlight. Born in Navrongo in Ghana’s Upper East Region, she has spent years building a name for herself as a broadcaster, entertainer, writer and event host. If you have watched Joy Prime TV or tuned into Daybreak Hitz on Hitz FM, you have likely seen or heard her. She is a familiar and trusted voice in Ghanaian media.
Her experience on big stages speaks for itself. She has hosted events like Ghana Party in the Park, the EMY Africa Awards and even the Ghana Music Awards UK itself. So in many ways, she already knows the organisation from the inside.
But there is more to her than just media work. She studied strategic communications and branding, which makes her a natural fit for a PR role. She also runs a foundation that focuses on supporting girls through education and welfare, showing that her passion for people goes well beyond the microphone.
The GMAUK team said they are counting on her to sharpen how they communicate with the world, connect better with their audience and raise the profile of Ghanaian music on a global level. Those are big goals, but knowing Doreen’s track record, most people would say she is more than up to the task.
The 10th anniversary edition of the Ghana Music Awards UK is already creating a buzz. With Doreen Avio now on the team, things just got a lot more interesting.
