Ghana must base foreign policy on ‘unimpeachable facts’ – Samuel Jinapor

“I’ve never seized the opportunity; I’ve never lost the opportunity to make this point that we support the Minister and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the President and the Government of Ghana to take up the matters relating to our compatriots in South Africa, particularly as it relates to the protection of Ghanaian citizens anywhere in the world, in South Africa in particular.”Ranking Member on Parliament’s Foreign Affairs Committee, Samuel Abdulai Jinapor, has urged the government to ensure that Ghana’s foreign policy is always grounded in “unimpeachable facts,” even as it takes strong action to protect Ghanaians in South Africa.“A lot has happened within the past 24 hours, in relation to foreign affairs, particularly Ghana’s bilateral relations with South Africa, and for me to also be quick in pointing out that all foreign relations, plus Article 73 of our national constitution, must be in accord or must promote Ghana’s national interest.”
