Alhaji Abu Issa Monnie is arguably an enigma in contemporary journalism practice, yet he carries himself with a rare humility that is uncommon among persons of his calibre.
He is one of the charming news anchors that many viewers applaud with admiration as he adds quality to TV3 News 360.
Issa Monnie, on TV, is an embodiment of experience and a confident composure.
He combines flawless phonetics with a very Ghanaian diction in a trendy way that makes one wonder why others try to speak like foreigners.
Aside his charm on TV, Issa Monnie is the Chief News Editor at Peace 104.3 Fm and was recently adjudged the Best Radio Editor of the Year at the Radio and Television Personality (RTP) Awards.
His testimonial at Peace FM speaks for itself as the station has consistently remained the radio station with the largest audience in Ghana.
Many admire the glory of Issa Monnie without knowing his story of toil and sweat.
He was not born with a silver spoon stuck in his esophagus and therefore had to go through life the hard way, propelled by sheer determination to reach the top.
He was actually born into a family of 19 children and during his early school days, made good use of his free periods by selling news papers in the mornings during those days of the shift system of basic education.
