Minister for Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has announced that five Ghanaians have been presented with diplomatic passports in recognition of their contributions to promoting the country’s image on the global stage.
Speaking at the launch of the 2025 Diaspora Summit, Ablakwa explained that the gesture is made possible under the authority conferred on the Foreign Minister by NLCD 155.
He noted that the recipients, drawn from various fields including media, music, art and philanthropy, have played vital roles in bringing Ghana international acclaim.
“I announced today at the launch of the 2025 Diaspora Summit that based on the authority conferred on the Foreign Minister of Ghana under NLCD 155, we are honoring the following outstanding Ghanaians with Diplomatic Passports… Congratulations; keep bringing Ghana renown,” Ablakwa stated in his post.
The honourees include internationally celebrated YouTuber Wodemaya, media entrepreneur Lady Dentaa Amoateng, Grammy-nominated musician Rocky Dawuni, broadcaster Anita Erskine, and acclaimed artist Ibrahim Mahama, whom Ablakwa clarified is “the iconic artist, not President Mahama’s brother.”
