Ablakwa to host Saudi Arabia Foreign Minister

Hon. Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, Ghana’s Foreign Minister, has announced that he will host the Foreign Minister of Saudi Arabia later this year. This follows a recent meeting with Saudi Arabia’s Ambassador to Ghana, H.E. Sultan Abdulrahman Al-Dhakel, where the two officials discussed expanding bilateral relations between the two countries.

During the meeting, the Ghanaian Foreign Minister highlighted the growth of Ghana-Saudi Arabia ties, with an emphasis on the upcoming historic projects in multiple sectors. Notably, Saudi Arabia has increased Ghana’s Hajj quota, now exceeding 6,000, marking a significant milestone in the two nations’ relationship.

Ablakwa expressed his eagerness to further strengthen the partnership with Saudi Arabia under President Mahama’s government, stating, “Great times for Ghana-Saudi Arabia relations.”

The upcoming visit of the Saudi Foreign Minister is expected to deepen cooperation and open doors to more collaboration between the two countries.
