I congratulate the University of Ghana’s School of Performing Arts for that masterful reenactment of the transatlantic enslavement at the Osu Castle during the Next Steps Juneteenth commemoration.
Their brilliant performance is receiving wide international acclaim with invitations already pouring in from multiple countries including Barbados, Jamaica and the US.
Really proud of Ghana’s outstanding diverse talents.
May I wish all our hardworking and caring men a Happy Father’s Day.
Congratulations to the Black Stars on their victory over Panama in their opening match of the FIFA World Cup 2026 in Toronto.
This victory reflects the hard work and preparation that go into representing Ghana on the world stage. It has inspired hope among Ghanaians everywhere.
On behalf of the Government and people of Ghana, I assure the team of our support as they continue in the tournament. I urge the Black Stars to remain focused and united. The nation stands behind them and looks forward to more successes.
Congratulations once again, Black Stars, and may you continue to bring honour to Ghana.
Ghana and Africa, in agreement with the global community, recognised slavery as the gravest crime against humanity and human dignity. For President John Dramani Mahama historian and African Union Champion for Reparations and Reparatory Justice this was a moral victory. It cleared years of hurdles to secure global acknowledgement of a historical truth long overdue.
A few months later, Mahama led the world to make that acknowledgement permanent.
He framed the resolution as a “pathway to healing” and a “safeguard against forgetting” a call to confront structural inequalities, racial discrimination, and economic disparities head-on. As AU Champion, he broadened the frame: reparative justice, the return of stolen African artefacts, and a fairer share of natural resource wealth are one connected demand.
Now the world must decide what comes next.
Scholars, historians, and policymakers are still grappling with the future of the past. Demanding reparations is one thing. What follows? Monetary compensation? The repatriation of artefacts and historical material? A formal acknowledgement preserved not in words alone, but in brick and memory through a museum that tells the story of slavery in the voices of the millions lost at sea, lost geographically, lost culturally, and those who still carry its weight today.
The spotlight is on Ghana. President Mahama now hosts the High-Level Consultative Conference on the Next Steps to the Landmark United Nations Resolution on the Trafficking of Enslaved Africans.
I have received the credentials of 7 new Ambassadors, welcoming them to Ghana from 🇲🇹, 🇷🇺, 🇵🇱, 🇮🇩, 🇵🇦, 🇦🇲, and 🇹🇿.
I shared our vision for a #24HourEconomy & digital transformation to drive investment. As the hub of #AfCFTA, Ghana is open for strategic partnerships in agric, tech, manufacturing & energy.
I led a delegation to meet the Black Stars ahead of their opening match against Panama to express our support and encouragement.
My team was accompanied by representatives of His Majesty Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, led by Daasebre Otuo Siriboe II, officials from Ghana’s High Commission, led by H.E. Prof. Dora Francisca Edu-Buandoh, and the leadership of the Ghana Football Association, led by Kurt Edwin Simeon-Okraku. We took a moment to engage with the players and technical team as they finalized preparations for the tournament.
Ghanaians from every region, community, and household are rallying behind the Ghana Black Stars, confident that they will represent the country with determination, discipline, and excellence.
On behalf of His Excellency, President John Dramani Mahama, the Government and the people of Ghana, I wish the team and technical staff every success at the tournament.
It is an honour to announce that the President of São Tomé and Príncipe is one of our confirmed keynote speakers at the Next Steps Conference on Reparatory Justice being hosted by President Mahama in Accra.

It was a pleasure to welcome His Excellency, President John Dramani Mahama, back to Ghana following his successful visits to the United Kingdom and Belarus.
In the UK, the President participated in the Ghana Investment Summit, where Ghana’s recent economic gains and reform efforts were highlighted to investors and business leaders. The visit led to important outcomes, including the Ghana–UK Growth Agreement, collaboration on artificial intelligence and digital trade, support for training engineers to maintain medical equipment, and plans to establish Ghana’s first commercial-scale ship repair yard in Takoradi. The President also met the King, held bilateral discussions with the Prime Minister, engaged with members of the Ghanaian business community, and rang the bell at the London Stock Exchange, promoting Ghana as an attractive destination for investment.
In Belarus, discussions focused on agriculture, trade, industrial development, and technical cooperation. A major outcome was the signing of agreements to support the supply of modern agricultural equipment under Government’s Farmer Service Centres Programme. The visit also strengthened bilateral relations through engagements with the President of Belarus, the establishment of mechanisms to enhance economic cooperation, and the conclusion of visa-waiver arrangements.
Back home, President Mahama addressed the recent floods and building collapses that have affected several communities. He emphasized the need for greater discipline, accountability, and strict adherence to development regulations, particularly regarding encroachment on waterways, wetlands, and green zones.
Accordingly, NADMO and the relevant institutions have been directed to identify affected waterways and take the necessary measures to prevent future occurrences. As the President stated, safeguarding lives and property requires a collective national effort and a commitment to responsible development, environmental stewardship, and adherence to the laws and regulations that exist for the benefit of all of us.
A privilege to visit the historic Brest Hero Fortress today to pay my respects to the brave souls who resisted the 1941 invasion. Their bravery is the foundation of Belarus’s modern industrial strength.
The complex is a very impressive symbol of patriotism and courage. May the memory of the heroes of the Brest Fortress continue to inspire love of our motherlands.
