One of Ghana’s fast-rising Radio Personalities, Ms Lordina Abena Konadu Yiadom is living a childhood dream of becoming the voice of the vulnerable and providing the platform for the less privileged.
Known as Abena Kay in the media space, the young, vibrant and eloquent lady is the hostess of Pink Show on Kumasi-based YFM.
The Pink Show was specially created to empower, encourage and acknowledge distinguished women in society.
It provides the platform for a hearty conversation with women with the intention to motivate the younger female generation with their stories.
The show also allows Abena to express her concerns about the problems in society especially with regard to the less privileged.
She believes that society can do better by accepting and providing a helping hand to the vulnerable and less privileged.
Ms Abena started radio in 2017 as a co-hostess for the first edition of YFM Mid-Morning Radio show. She was later made hostess of the maiden ‘Pick N Play’ aired every Saturday.
Before YFM, she worked with Silver FM as a panelist on the Silver Anigye and Kessben Music Plus as a pundit and a sit-in-hostess.
In 2019, she was offered the role of Drive Time Show hostess on Focus FM and KNUST’s campus-based radio where she served for three years. She moved back to YFM in March 2022 to resume her role as Pick N Play hostess.
She loves to talk and command listening which got her into taking up the emceeing job and gradually carving a niche as one of the best in the industry.
That aligns with her dream of being the voice that speak for those who do not have power or the platform.
As a professional MC, she puts a lot of effort into making every event special and memorable for her clients.
Abena Konadu Yiadom hails from Ntonso-Aboaso in the Ashanti region and lived most of her growing years in Kumasi. She is the first born of four girls and committed to making life comfortable for her younger siblings.
She had her Senior High School (SHS) education at Amaniampong SHS and later had a Diploma in Media Studies at Premier Media College.
At her leisure time, she would listen to music, especially ones from her favourite, Sarkodie. She considers herself as an ardent fun of Sarkodie. She also loves Kinaata, Nathaniel Bassey and would jump on any Cece Winans song for inspiration.
She is a devoted Christian and her favourite scripture is Joshua 21:45,”Not one of all the Lord’s good promises to Israel failed; everyone was fulfilled.”
Her favourite quote is “You cannot skip the stages of life. For your peace of mind and a success that lasts, you need to go through the mill. Grow through what you go through. That’s life.”

The Tema Regional Police Command has arrested a 32-year-old man for allegedly posing as a soldier and extorting money from unsuspecting members of the public at Ashaiman.
The suspect, identified as Bright Atsu Kudiabor, was arrested by the Ashaiman Police on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, at about 7:00 a.m.
According to the Police, he was arrested at an area known as “I Shall Return”, where he was allegedly parading himself as a soldier and demanding money from people.
The Police said Kudiabor, who is an ex-convict, was initially arrested by personnel of the Ghana National Fire Service in Ashaiman with assistance from other members of the public.
A search conducted on him after he was handed over to the Police reportedly led to the recovery of a set of military camouflage uniform.
The suspect is currently in Police custody and assisting with investigations.
The Tema Regional Police Command said he would be processed for court after investigations are completed.
The Police urged the public to remain vigilant and report anyone who falsely presents themselves as a soldier or a member of another security agency to deceive or extort money from the public.

Volta Regional Minister, James Gunu, says the Volta Region holds enormous agricultural potential and efforts must be geared towards connecting farmers to the needed resources to unlock that potential.
He said focus must be on linking farmers to resources, technology, financing and markets to increase production, create jobs and build sustainable livelihoods.
Hon. Gunu made the remarks at the national launch of the Ghana Tomato Self-Sufficiency Initiative (GHATSI) held at Anloga in the Volta Region on Tuesday, September 15.
The initiative, under the theme “Produce at Home. Feed the Nation. Export the Surplus,” seeks to boost local tomato production, processing and marketing while reducing Ghana’s heavy reliance on imported tomatoes.
The launch was attended by the Minister for Food and Agriculture, Eric Opoku, his Deputy, John Setor Dumelo, Feed Ghana Coordinator, Bright Demordzi, Members of Parliament, traditional leaders, MMDCEs, farmers and other stakeholders.
Mr.Gunu expressed appreciation to the Minister for Food and Agriculture for the support announced for the region, including two excavators, 200 cartons of organic fertiliser, and GH¢200,000 for Ms. Kuatudzo Esther Dela, a tomato farmer and processor from Ziope.
He described the initiative as an important step towards making agriculture a stronger driver of food security, job creation and economic growth in the Volta Region.
