233times is a Ghana-based digital news organization that publishes reporting and commentary across politics, business, entertainment, sports and technology. Its newsroom regularly covers developments in the Western Region while reporting national stories and Africa‑wide issues, combining quick updates with original interviews and personality profiles. The outlet also curates music and video releases and runs a showcase that promotes up‑and‑coming artists, reflecting its roots in Ghana’s creative scene. Led by editor‑in‑chief Nana Kwesi Coomson, a journalist and communications executive, 233times mixes breaking news with explainer pieces and full texts of key speeches or policy documents when they set the agenda. The publication’s reporting has ranged from port and maritime activity in Takoradi to national policy debates, arts and culture and football. Beyond the newsroom, Coomson’s public‑interest work in media and youth development has been recognised by the British Council’s Study UK Alumni Awards (2025) and the Fontomfrom Amandze Awards in the Western Region (2023), exposure that helps the brand reach students, creatives and civic audiences. With an accessible tone and a nationwide audience, 233times aims to provide timely, shareable coverage of issues Ghanaians debate every day—economy, governance, community safety, music and sport—alongside space for emerging voices.
