Ghanaian nurses and teachers may soon have new opportunities in the Caribbean, following the announcement of a special bilateral partnership between Ghana and Jamaica.
According to Hon.
Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, the Member of Parliament for North Tongu and Ranking Member on Ghana's Foreign Affairs Committee, the two nations are moving to solidify a cooperative arrangement that will see Ghanaian professionals welcomed in Jamaica. "Jamaica is ready to receive nurses and teachers from Ghana under a special bilateral partnership," Ablakwa shared in a Facebook post sighted by MyNewsGh.
The development emerged from a meeting between Ablakwa and Senator the Honourable Kamina Johnson Smith, Jamaica's Minister for Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade.
