The Council of State of Ghana has hailed HE John Dramani Mahama, after he successfully tabled a resolution before the United Nations (UN) to declare the trafficking of enslaved Africans and racialised chattel enslavement of Africans as the gravest crime against humanity.

In a statement, the Council extended a congratulatory message.

It emphasised that the notable achievement reflects Mahama’s visionary leadership, diplomatic acumen, and unwavering commitment to justice, human dignity, and historical accountability while reinforcing Ghana’s longstanding reputation as a beacon of Pan-Africanism and a principled voice in the community of nations.

“The Council of State commends His Excellency for elevating Ghana’s standing on the international stage and for championing a cause of profound global significance.

“We are confident that this milestone will continue to inspire national pride and strengthen Ghana’s role in promoting equity and justice worldwide.
