The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has reaffirmed the country's commitment to fostering unity between Anglophone and Francophone communities to enhance regional peace, stability, human rights, and sustainable development. "Indeed, in the context of our current regional and global political landscape, the promotion of these ideals has become even more imperative," he stated.
Speaking at a flag-raising ceremony in Accra yesterday to mark the 55th anniversary of La Francophonie, Mr Ablakwa highlighted the importance of strengthening ties in the face of current global political challenges.
He stressed the need for Africa to promote fair trade, economic inclusiveness, justice, and a world free from war and hunger to ensure shared prosperity.
The event marked Ghana's first year as a full member of La Francophonie, a global organisation of French-speaking countries.
