The roll out of Akwaaba Magic on DStv was the first step in MultiChoice quest to make authentic Ghanaian content accessible across the African continent. Since the channel was launched in 2021, this 24/7 entertainment flagship channel has been exclusive to DStv Compact, Compact Plus and Premium customers. 

Making this announcement, Managing Director of MultiChoice Ghana, Alex Okyere said: “we are excited that all customers on DStv can now watch hit shows like Inspector Bediako S2, Brenya, Play By Ear, Accra Stand Up, The Billionaire’s Wife and Nana Akoto amongst others from as little as Ghs80 per month. In the past three years, Akwaaba Magic has rekindled interest in Ghanaian content production and fulfilled our commitment to developing and upskilling the film ecosystem”.
He adds from the 1st of April, a section of our customers who hitherto did not have access to the diverse shows on Akwaaba Magic, will now be able to watch their beloved Ghanaian stars on our Ghs 80 per month pack”.

Head of the Akwaaba Magic Channel, Nosisa Doe explains that “this move is In line with MultiChoice’s commitment to offering more value to its customers and reinforces our strategic vision to be Africa’s most loved storyteller.” Customers can expect new Ghanaian shows, series and movies starting with the second season of Inspector Bediako every Monday evening on the channel. Furthermore, the Akwaaba Magic Abusua channel would be terminating on the 12th of April 2024 and all unfinished series would be moved to channel 150 on DStv.
