Today I turn a new age and I decided the best gift I could give myself was to finally launch something I’ve been working on.

https://www.thedavidquaye.com/ is officially live!! (Link in bio)

For years the stage has been my home. Corporate conferences, international summits, award nights, weddings, and birthday receptions. I’ve had the honour of hosting over 100 events and standing in front of some of the most remarkable audiences across Ghana and beyond.

This website is more than a portfolio. It’s a statement of intent. A professional MC and strategic communicator who is ready for the next level.

If you’re planning an event and you want someone who will bring energy, professionalism and an unforgettable experience to your stage — the booking details are on the site.

To everyone who has trusted me with their events, their stages and their most important moments, thank you.

New year. New stage. Let’s go.

I had the opportunity to attend the KAS Ghana Dialogue on Illegal Mining, Human Rights and Community Protection.

The dialogue convened a diverse group of stakeholders from academia, public institutions, civil society, and the media to critically explore the escalating challenges of illegal mining, what we refer to as “Galamsey”.

In her opening remarks, Anna Lena Sabroso-Wasserfall, Country Representative of KAS, emphasized the need for continuous engagement and strong collaboration across sectors as essential to tackling illegal mining and reinforcing democratic governance.

Delivering the Keynote Address, Dr. Agyeman Budu, Dean of the GIMPA Law School reinforced a hard truth: we are gradually normalising a crisis that is actively destroying our environment, our health, and our future.

Illegal mining is no longer just an environmental issue, it is a governance and human rights failure. From polluted rivers to destroyed farmlands, from toxic exposure to the exploitation of vulnerable communities, the consequences are severe and deeply personal.

Yet, despite the urgency, political responses continue to fall short. Too often, we hear rhetoric without decisive action while communities bear the cost. While the current government has made some strides, there is more to be done.

𝐀𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐭 2026 - 𝐀 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐀𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚’𝐬 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐅𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞!

I am proud to have played a central coordination role in the successful delivery of the inaugural Africa Trade Summit at the Kempinski Gold Coast Hotel, Accra, held under the distinguished patronage of H.E. President

My role spanned oversight of VIP relations and delegate management, and ensuring seamless on-ground ex*****on across the two-day convening.

A consistent message echoed across the room: Africa must move beyond extraction.

The data supports this urgency. Intra-African trade still hovers around 15–20% of total trade, significantly lower than Asia or Europe. Meanwhile, many African economies remain heavily dependent on exporting raw materials while importing finished goods. Infrastructure gaps, non-tariff barriers, fragmented standards, and limited industrial capacity continue to slow value-chain development.

President Mahama’s call to end the raw-material export model aligns directly with the structural bottlenecks we must confront.

The Summit concluded with an Awards Ceremony represented by the Vice President, H.E Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang, signalling recognition of leadership in advancing Africa’s trade and industrial agenda.

1. At the 7th edition of the Annual KAS Ghana Scholars Conference in Cape Coast, I sat in a room filled with brilliant minds. Each of us carrying our own journey, our own struggles, our own silent victories. I didn’t walk in expecting anything; I simply showed up, as I always try to, ready to learn, ready to serve.

2. So when my name was called as one of the five scholars to receive a of , I felt a breeze of gratitude blow over me. Not because of the award itself, but because it symbolized my mantra that nothing will go wrong, I only need to keep going trusting God.

3. And just when I thought the day couldn’t get any richer, I was elected as Organizer for the Scholars & Alumni Network. This presents me with a new opportunity to lead the design of meaningful programs and work alongside people who believe in the power of service and leadership.

4. After the conference, we hiked through Kakum National Park and stepped onto the canopy walk together - suspended in the air, trusting each step, cheering one another on. In that moment, I realized: this is what growth feels like. A little scary, a little exciting, but always worth it.

5. Every milestone from the past weekend whispered the same message:
Wherever you find yourself, contribute, even in the smallest way.

Keep showing up. Your results will meet you on the journey.

Special thanks to our Country Representative Anna Lena Sabroso-Wasserfall , Dr. Joseph Darmoe, Program Director and our Programs Managers: and Lawrencia Akosua Pomaa.

Honoured to have hosted the first-ever Climate Change Universities Debate organized by , a platform that brought together 12 universities from across the country to engage in rigorous, solutions-driven discourse on the climate crisis.

As a climate change advocate, it was inspiring to see young scholars challenge conventional thinking, defend evidence-based arguments, and propose practical pathways for climate resilience. Their passion reminds me that the fight for a sustainable future is in capable hands.

Congratulations to the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) for emerging as champions after a highly competitive and intellectually charged contest.

We were also honoured by the presence of the CEO of the National Youth Authority, Hon , whose support for youth-led climate action continues to energize the movement.

This event was more than a debate, it was a call to action. And I’m proud to be part of the growing community driving climate consciousness and leadership across Ghana.

Tomorrow, I will be hosting the inaugural edition of the Health and Labour Summit being organized by the incredible team at

Currently, nearly 1 in 2 deaths in the country is linked to a non-communicable disease. Cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer and chronic respiratory illness, many of which are linked to workplace incidents, now account for 43-45% of all deaths in Ghana.

These deaths are not aliens. They are friends, families and work colleagues. It’s for this reason we must ACT NOW.

Join us at the University of Ghana for this important conversation.
