Accra, Ghana – As 2026 begins, Broadcast Journalist Doe Benjamin Kofi Lawson, popularly known as RSM Kofi Doe Lawson, of Ignite Media Group (Metro TV, Original TV, and Original FM), has extended a message of hope and encouragement to Ghana’s youth.
He described the new year as an opportunity for “a brew of green leaves,” a metaphor for freshness, growth, and positive transformation.
Speaking to the press, RSM Kofi Doe Lawson emphasized that the phrase symbolizes renewal and the deliberate cultivation of potential. “Green leaves represent life and resilience. Brewing them is a simple act, but it reminds us that progress takes care, patience, and intention,” he said.
Experts in youth development have echoed the sentiment, highlighting the importance of a positive mindset in achieving personal and professional goals. Dr. Kwesi Amankwah noted, “Focusing on possibilities rather than obstacles sets the stage for meaningful impact. This year’s wish encourages young Ghanaians to invest in themselves and pursue their dreams deliberately.”
Across Ghana, initiatives in education, entrepreneurship, and innovation continue to offer platforms for young people to develop their skills and realize their potential. In this context, RSM Kofi Doe Lawson’s message resonates as both a symbolic and practical call to action.
He urged all positive-thinking youth to embrace opportunities, learn continuously, and step confidently into the future. “A ‘brew of green leaves’ is more than imagery,” he said. “It’s about planting hope, nurturing growth, and seeing your efforts flourish.”

As Ghanaian youth enter the new year, the journalist’s message serves as a reminder that with resilience, optimism, and determination, 2026 could be a year of transformation and achievement.
