Daily Graphic
The paper was established along with the Sunday Mirror in 1950, by Cecil King of the London Daily Mirror Group. With a circulation of 100,000 copies, Graphic is the most widely read daily newspaper in the country. The paper has seen many editors replaced over the course of its history, particularly post-independence, after a string of successive military coups that resulted in the sacking editors who opposed the government policies.
In 1979 the newspaper was renamed the People’s Daily Graphic under Jerry Rawlings for a few years to “remind the people that it belongs to them”. One journalist, in particular, Fredrick Botchway, so gifted in his work had excelled at the paper and was swiftly promoted to Chief Editor in the mid-1950s.

That Act was given further recognition by the provision of Provisional National Defence Council Law 42.
