Facts about Ghana’s new Free Visas for Africans Policy as announced by President Mahama:
1) Africans will not pay visa fees;
2) Not paying visa fees does not mean you will not go through visa screening. Africans will still have to go through a visa application process like everyone else just that theirs would be gratis;
3) Government is also introducing an e-Visa policy next month;
4) The Free Visa for Africans is a component of the e-Visa initiative;
5) All applicants including Africans will have to apply for visas through the e-Visa platform;
6) The novel e-Visa system shall be linked to Ghana’s newly established API-PNR system and other international crime database which allows our consular officers to check background of applicants and provide appropriate vetting to ensure Ghana’s security is not compromised;
7) People with criminal or deemed unsatisfactory records will not be admitted into Ghana;
8) Not paying visa fees is not the same as automatic entry into Ghana. There shall be no automatic and unvetted entries.
9) Adequate investments have been made by the Ministries of Foreign Affairs, the Interior and Transport to ensure a robust and technologically advanced architecture is in place;
10) For clarity, though former President Nana Akufo-Addo announced a Free Visa for Africans policy in 2024, that could not commence because the mechanisms and security safeguards had not yet been put in place. As President Mahama indicated yesterday, Ghana is now ready to launch an e-Visa platform for all applicants across the world and a Free Visa for Africans policy from Africa Day which is May 25, 2026 fully anchored on appropriate security and technological frameworks.
May I wish you all a happy Easter.
For God, Country and Continent.
Breaking down the mutual benefits from President Mahama’s state visit to Zambia under a new Comprehensive Partnership:
1) A Pan-African agreement for visa-free travel which allows nationals from both countries to spend 30 days in our nations;
2) Fintech contracts for Ghanaian and Zambian companies worth over $50million in the short term and expected to create some 8,000 jobs;
3) Natural Resource agreements to maximize value addition and environmentally friendly practices;
4) Defence cooperation agreement to create additional frontiers for the armed forces of both nations;
5) Ghana to offer technical assistance in the establishment of a Minerals Commission and Goldbod in Zambia;
6) Zambia to offer technical assistance in solar energy regulation and scientifically improved seedling production in Ghana;
7) Establishment of new trade corridors to allow both nations to serve as hubs for the larger Western African and Southern African markets;
8) Agreement to standardize certification of products from both countries;
9) Signed a Bilateral Air Services Agreement to enhance aviation cooperation and establish direct flight travels;
10) Ghana will host a Fugu and Kente Trade Exhibition in Zambia next month following the tremendous and phenomenal interest of Zambians in Ghanaian traditional outfits and President Hakainde Hichilema’s publicly expressed desire to place orders.
From the special Nkrumah-Kaunda friendship, Ghana-Zambia relations keeps growing stronger, exciting and more formidable. 🇬🇭 🇿🇲

@FMwenge@MawanoKambeu@dotcomzambia Thank you. EBITDA is short for Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization. It’s an alternative measure of company's operating performance
@FMwenge@MawanoKambeu@dotcomzambia 3. Revenue reporting. Why is revenue reported as transaction value and not the actual commission DotCom get? This is rather misleading. Additionally, gross and EBITDA margins are single digits — how does DCZ plan to manage its cost structure?
@FMwenge@MawanoKambeu@dotcomzambia 2. Concentration risk. Much of revenue (>80%) is tied to NRFA. If political landscape change/things get cancelled, how does Dotcom planning/plan to address revenue mix?
@MAD4safari I’m less concerned about fair distribution but more about own-source revenue (OSR) development. Livingstone being urban should be developing strategies to strengthen its OSR rather relying on state resources everytime.
