Joel Savage
Joel Savage was born in Ghana in 1957. In 1985, he lost his Ghanaian citizenship when he became a naturalized citizen of Sierra Leone.
Much of his life’s work has been influenced by his father, who was a veteran journalist. His father’s influence propelled his flair for writing at a very tender age. While he was still in school, Joel wrote numerous articles for publication and completed a short course in journalism at the Ghana Institute of Journalism in Accra to acquire more experience and writing skills.
As a freelance writer, Joel has written feature articles for the Daily Graphic, the Ghanaian Times, and the Weekly Spectator. He is now a prolific writer and an accredited card-holding member of the “Vlaamse Journalisten Vereniging” (Flemish Journalists Association) in Belgium. He currently lives in Antwerp, Belgium, with his wife and three children.
