My name is Afia Sarpong (Afia English) , a Ghanaian Blogger and Author with a Bachelors Degree in B. A Social Sciences (Geography and Sociology) from the University of Cape Coast.
I am currently a staff of Ghana’s Defence Ministry (Ghana Armed Forces).
I served as a volunteer writer for the New Independent newspaper and Today Newspaper in 2012.
I started my first blog afiaenglish.wordpress.com in January 2013, becoming Ghana’s first female to start Entertainment Blogging in the male dominated Blogging industry.
My educative and informative articles got my blog nominated as the ‘Best New Blog’ at the 2014 Ghana Blogging and Social Media Awards.
With almost ten years of blogging experience, I have had several nominations/recognition, including my article been used by Students of Auchi Polytechnic as a case study.
I have two published books to my credit.
