Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, the ministerial nominee for Foreign Affairs, has declared that it will be in our best interest as a country to maintain strong diplomatic ties with the Sahelian states, particularly given the region’s increasing importance in West African politics and security.
This he described as “good neighbours” with shared strategic interests.
He made these remarks on Friday, January 31, 2025, during his appearance before the Appointments Committee for vetting.
“It’s in Ghana’s strategic interest to relate well with the Sahelian states,” he stated, adding cooperation in areas such as security, trade, and regional development is essential for mutual benefit.
He maintained that the Sahelian states are Ghana’s “good neighbours,” and these nations play a critical role in regional stability.
