The Ghana Journalists Association (GJA) has announced a new date for its Annual General Meeting (AGM), shifting it from March 31, 2025, to April 2, 2025.

The change follows the declaration of March 31 and April 1 as public holidays by the President of Ghana through an Executive Instrument, in accordance with the Public Holidays and Commemorative Days Act, 2001 (Act 601).

Despite the date adjustment, the AGM will still take place at the Ghana International Press Centre in Accra, beginning at 11:00 a.m. The meeting, which serves as the highest decision-making platform for the association, will proceed under Articles 34(f) and 34(a)(ii) of the GJA Constitution (2004).

Key items on the agenda include the General Secretary’s Annual Report, the presentation and discussion of the association’s audited accounts by the National Treasurer, regional reports, and other matters arising.

The AGM is open to all GJA members in good standing as of December 31, 2024. While honorary and student members may attend, only full members in good standing will have voting rights.

The GJA encourages its members to take note of the new date and participate fully in discussions that will shape the future of the association.
