Ghanaian DJ and media personality DJ Bridash is making notable strides on the international scene as he combines music and cultural engagement during a visit to the United Kingdom.
While in London, he paid a courtesy call on Ghana’s High Commissioner to the UK, Sabah Zita Benson, in a meeting that also included award-winning rapper E.L. The engagement highlighted the role of Ghanaian creatives in strengthening cultural ties with the diaspora and projecting the country’s image on the global stage.
Discussions during the meeting focused on the growing influence of Ghanaian music abroad and how the creative industry continues to serve as a channel for cultural diplomacy and international representation.
The visit comes ahead of a live performance in London where DJ Bridash will join E.L on stage. The event is scheduled for May 2 at The Camden Assembly, a popular venue known for hosting diverse international acts.
The show is expected to deliver a mix of Afrobeats, hip hop and contemporary African sounds. DJ Bridash will provide supporting sets throughout the night, bringing his signature energy to complement E.L’s performance.
E.L, regarded as one of Ghana’s leading rap and Afrobeats artistes, is expected to perform a catalogue of his well-known songs, offering fans in London a lively and engaging experience.
The event is anticipated to attract members of the Ghanaian diaspora as well as a wider international audience, reflecting the increasing global appeal of Ghana’s music industry.
Beyond the performance, the engagement between the artistes and the High Commissioner points to the expanding intersection of entertainment and diplomacy, with Ghanaian creatives playing a growing role in cultural exchange across borders.
The London appearance adds to ongoing efforts by Ghanaian artistes and media personalities to build international audiences and strengthen connections with communities abroad.

Earth Month: Deloitte Ghana Celebrates Sustainability with Workplace Plant Awards
Deloitte Ghana has successfully concluded its Earth Month celebrations with a vibrant and insightful Earth Month Awards Ceremony, highlighting a year-long journey of nurturing sustainability within the workplace.
The event, held on Wednesday, 29 April 2026, brought together staff across units to celebrate the growth and care invested in office plants distributed in April 2025 as part of the firm’s Earth Month initiative.
Opening the ceremony, the Chief Sustainability Officer of Deloitte West Africa, Abena Biney, reflected on the symbolic journey of the plants over the past year.
She drew a thoughtful parallel between the plants and people within the organisation, likening their initial state to “associates” and “national service personnel”.
“Through consistent care, nurturing, and attention—much like professional development—some plants had flourished remarkably, while others continue to grow and evolve”, Mrs. Biney mentioned.
To ensure objectivity and credibility in the assessment process, the plants were evaluated by an independent florist, who audited and scored each entry based on health, growth, and overall care.
At the end of the assessment, two units emerged as winners:
Assurance Unit, with their plant “Blossom”
P&P Unit, with their plant “Evergreen Bloom”
In recognition of their efforts, both teams were awarded a Dracaena plant, known for its resilience, low maintenance, and calming qualities, along with a beautifully crafted art painting.
In her closing remarks, Mrs. Biney reiterated a familiar principle: “the reward for hard work is more work.”
She explained that presenting another plant to the winning teams was both a reward and a renewed responsibility to continue exemplifying care and consistency.
She further encouraged all staff to continue nurturing their “office companions,” not only as a contribution to a greener workspace but also as a reminder of the life lessons embedded in growth, patience, and responsibility.
The Earth Month initiative once again reinforced Deloitte Ghana’s commitment to sustainability, employee engagement, and creating meaningful experiences that connect personal growth with environmental stewardship.
