One of Ghana’s biggest digital media platforms, GhanaWeb.com, is facing growing scrutiny after a series of whistleblower claims and internal accounts raised concerns about governance, workplace conditions, and operational management under CEO David Antwi.
According to a document circulating within media and industry circles, several current and former staff members have allegedly raised issues ranging from salary delays and staff welfare concerns to claims of poor internal communication and declining morale.

Claims of Salary Delays and Workplace Frustrations
The report alleges that some GhanaWeb employees have experienced inconsistent salary payments, creating uncertainty among staff members. There are also unverified concerns about delays involving statutory obligations such as SSNIT contributions and employee welfare support systems.
Several workers reportedly described the work environment as strained, with allegations of weak communication structures, unclear management processes, and declining confidence in the organisation’s long-term direction.
The claims, which have not been independently verified, are beginning to generate wider discussions within Ghana’s media industry as observers monitor developments around one of the country’s most recognisable online news brands.
Leadership and Governance Questions Surface
According to the document, some former and current staff members allege that GhanaWeb’s leadership style has contributed to a restrictive and intimidating atmosphere inside the company. Sources further claimed that decision-making processes appeared reactive rather than strategic, creating uncertainty across departments.
Industry observers are now questioning whether the reported concerns could affect GhanaWeb’s institutional credibility and public reputation if left unresolved. The document states that some stakeholders are reportedly calling for stronger governance oversight, improved transparency, and clearer internal systems.
Additional Workplace Conduct Allegations
The report also includes allegations involving workplace conduct and internal tensions connected to some staff members. Specific claims were made against Commercial Manager Patrice Amegashie, including accusations of unprofessional conduct and inappropriate workplace behaviour. However, the allegations remain unproven and no public response had reportedly been issued at the time the document was circulated.
Some observers believe the situation could become a major talking point within Ghana’s digital media ecosystem, especially given GhanaWeb’s long-standing influence in the online publishing space.
Why This Story Matters
GhanaWeb has remained one of Ghana’s most visited digital media platforms for years, shaping online news conversations both locally and internationally. Any serious governance or operational concerns linked to the platform naturally attract public attention due to its influence within Ghana’s media landscape.
The developments also come at a time when trust, transparency, editorial independence, and staff welfare are becoming increasingly important issues across global digital media organisations.
