"At EX TV, we believe in partnership, when you look at Volta region, not many are so blessed with financial capacity, so we believe the partnership can help us do a lot"
The concept of Eric's Volta Sports Facts according to Christian Sowada will bring back the past memories of sports personalities who have played in the region and have gone unnoticed
"What Eric is doing, we all know in the past, some people represented Volta region in terms of sports and they have done so well, yet it has gone unpublished or unnoticed, so we thought it wise that, we should get in partnership with him to make it big and also do the audiovisuals side of what he's already doing. EX TV will bring back past pictures, visuals of our heroes"
Volta Sports Facts will be aired every Wednesdays on EX TV.
