The Dean of the University of Professional Studies Law School, Professor Ernest Kofi Abotsi, has commended President for the bold decision to visit some of the Sahel states.

He clearly stated that there could be no higher priority than ensuring and maintaining the trade and security relations of Ghana with these countries.

In a post on his official X page, Prof Abotsi said, "President Mahama's re-engagement of disaffected Sahel states is bold and sensible!

National interest should lead foreign policy and there can be no higher priority than maintaining the trade and security relations Ghana has with these countries!
