Mahama Charges New Envoys To Advance Ghana Economic Diplomacy

President John Dramani Mahama on Friday, October 16, 2026, commissioned four new ambassadors and a Permanent Representative at the Jubilee House, charging them to make economic diplomacy the cornerstone of Ghana’s foreign policy to attract investment and create jobs.

The envoys are Her Excellency Nana Antwiwaa Dodoo, Ambassador-Designate to the Republic of Angola; His Excellency Louis Kwame Obeng, Ambassador-Designate to the State of Qatar; Her Excellency Evelyn Korantemaa Ofosu-Amable, Ambassador-Designate to the State of Israel; and His Excellency Jedidiah Reuben Adogla, Permanent Representative-Designate to Switzerland and the UN Office in Geneva.

The President urged the diplomats to strengthen international partnerships, open new markets for Ghanaian businesses, attract strategic investments, promote industrialisation and ensure greater value addition to Ghana’s natural resources. He said the success of missions must be measured by practical benefits delivered to Ghanaians.

President Mahama noted shifting global alliances, trade restrictions and competition over technology require Ghana to engage with confidence. He tasked the envoys to follow through on agreements, identify obstacles early and work with the Foreign Affairs Ministry to deliver results under the Resetting Ghana Agenda.

He further emphasised the importance of protecting the welfare of Ghanaians abroad and upholding Ghana’s foreign policy commitments, including its support for a peaceful two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The President stressed efficient consular services as a priority for all missions.

The new envoys are expected to depart for their duty stations in the coming weeks after final briefings from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration.
