Zionfelix urges bloggers to upgrade skills to stay relevant

Ghanaian blogger Felix Adomako Mensah, popularly known as Zionfelix, has advised content creators to acquire new skills to enhance their craft in the fast-evolving digital space.

Speaking on Joy FM’s Showbiz A-Z with Kwame Dadzie, Zionfelix said bloggers must embrace modern technology to remain relevant.

“We all need to upgrade ourselves, we all need to learn. Most of us didn’t attend GIJ or any media school. We all found passion in the job and we entered into it. Thinking about the fact that we want to do this for a long time, we need to learn on the job. Some of us have learnt on the job because how we started years ago is not the same as how we are today,” he noted.

He further urged the New Media Association of Ghana to organise regular training programmes to build the capacity of bloggers.

“It’s not just about writing. It is not just about putting content out. A lot of things go into it. Even now we have people who go to events and take videos and put them together, and do very beautiful editing. So as you also go for events you need to know how to edit. It is not just about taking videos. It is not like the normal vlogging we did five years ago. People want to watch something that will appeal to them,” he explained.

Zionfelix, regarded as one of Ghana’s most influential bloggers, has gained wide recognition for his interviews, entertainment updates, and lifestyle content, building a strong following both locally and abroad.
