Veep Departs Ghana for Guyana’s 60th Independence Celebrations

Vice President Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang has left Ghana for Guyana to participate in the country’s 60th Independence Anniversary celebrations.

She departed on Sunday, May 24, as part of Ghana’s representation at the historic national event being commemorated by the government and people of Guyana.

Upon her arrival, she was received by Nii Amasah Namoale, Ghana’s Ambassador to Brazil, together with members of the diplomatic team and Guyana’s Minister for Culture, Youth and Sport, Charles Ramson.

Members of the Ghanaian community living in Guyana had also gathered to receive her.

The visit forms part of efforts to strengthen diplomatic relations and deepen historical ties between Ghana and Guyana, two countries that share longstanding cultural and historical connections rooted in African heritage.

The anniversary celebrations are anticipated to feature a series of official state events, cultural showcases, and engagements highlighting Guyana’s history, achievements, and future aspirations.

Ghana and Guyana have maintained cordial diplomatic relations over the years, with both countries continuing to explore opportunities for collaboration across several sectors of mutual interest.

Guyana gained independence from British colonial rule in 1966 and is thus celebrating 60 years of independence this year.

Joining the event are leaders and representatives from different parts of the world.
