Professional Highlight
Presidential Correspondent — reporting from the highest levels of government.
For years Victor covered the Presidency of Ghana — cabinet announcements, foreign visits, parliamentary addresses and the policy decisions that travel a long distance from the briefing room to the citizen.
That assignment shaped his standard for the work: power must be questioned plainly, and the public must always be the audience the questions are written for.
