The World Bank Regional Vice President for the Africa Region, Mr Ousmane Diagana, as part of his six-day duty tour to Ghana, last Monday visited the renovated Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park and Mausoleum (KNMPM) in Accra.
Mr Diagana is visiting the country from January 6-12, 2025 to attend the inauguration of the President John Dramani Mahama.
The objective of the visit was to acquaint himself with the operations of the renovated KNMPM where the mortal remains of Ghana's first President, Dr Kwame Nkrumah, and his wife, Fathia Nkrumah, are laid and also learn the history of Ghana's independence and Nkrumah's role therein.
World Bank recently provided $3.5 million for the renovation of the Park, which was part of the $40 million, the Bank provided to Ghana under the Ghana Tourism Development Project.
