The name Amanda Jissih commands a lot of respect in the Ghanaian entertainment industry. She is excelling in a male dominated field. She is a producer, a presenter, a host, an emcee, an actress and a singer.

These days for shows or events to be successful, or to have viewers or audiences keep that memorable feelings with them for a every long time, you need an experience, exciting and crowd pulling emcee to stir in the affairs of the program.

Ghana has had a lot of finest emcees pass through the ranks. Most of these emcees are males and there are relatively few of them still available doing what they enjoy doing best. At the opposite end, the numbers of the female emcee are multiplying at a fast pace. Gone are the days when females are looked down upon when it comes to hosting events.
