Ghana GBC launches new website


The Ghana Broadcasting Corporation has launched a new website at the new URL http://www.gbcghana.com. The old website had not been updated for several years. The new site contains current news items, but is still not complete. The links to the various GBC radio stations go nowhere at the moment. Some of the other links are also not working yet. Even a link from the Home Page banner saying “Broadcast and Advertising” produces a “page not found” message. The “contacts” page contains no phone, fax or E-mail details. Clearly here’s still a lot of work still to be done.
