Mahama pays tribute to Ambassador James Gbeho, hails five decades of distinguished public service

President John Dramani Mahama has paid glowing tribute to the late Ambassador James Victor Gbeho, describing him as a distinguished diplomat who projected Ghana with dignity, principle and clarity throughout a career spanning more than five decades in public service.

President Mahama said Ambassador Gbeho's unwavering commitment to service continued even after leaving frontline politics, as he later served as Foreign Policy Adviser to the late President John Evans Atta Mills.

The tribute, delivered on the President's behalf by Presidential Adviser and Special Aide Joyce Bawah Mogtari at the State Funeral of Ambassador Gbeho on July 31, highlighted the late statesman's outstanding contributions to Ghana's diplomacy and international reputation.
