The Speaker of Parliament, Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin, has called for stronger collaboration between Ghana and the United States to promote sustainable growth and development.
Speaking during a courtesy call by a delegation of members of the U.S. Congress, the Speaker expressed hope that the visit would further deepen relations between the two countries.
He noted that Ghana enjoys one of the strongest democratic freedoms in the world and appealed for continued support to advance the country’s development agenda.
Leader of the delegation, Vern Buchanan, said the visit was aimed at engaging with the Speaker, learning from his experiences, and exchanging ideas on parliamentary leadership and governance. He added that the delegation was committed to exploring ways of strengthening the longstanding relationship between Ghana and the United States.
The Minority Leader, Alexander Kwamena Afenyo-Markin, and the Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee, Alfred Oko Vanderpuije, welcomed the delegation and commended the visit.
They underscored the importance of enhanced cooperation between Ghana and the United States, particularly in areas that would create jobs, attract investment, and expand opportunities for the youth.
