Veep Joins Guyana’s Independence Day Celebrations

Vice President Prof. Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang represented Ghana at Guyana’s Independence Day celebrations.

The celebration on May 25, 2026, began with an interfaith service held on the lawns of the State House.

The solemn ceremony brought together representatives of the Hindu, Muslim, and Christian faiths, alongside members of government, the diplomatic corps, and citizens of Guyana.

The service served as a moment of national reflection, emphasising unity in diversity and the shared aspirations guiding Guyana’s development.

Speakers highlighted the importance of inclusivity as the country marks another year of self-governance.

Following the service, Vice President Opoku-Agyemang joined President Irfaan Ali, Prime Minister Mark Phillips, former Presidents, and other distinguished guests at a private reception hosted at the President’s residence.

The gathering provided an opportunity for diplomatic courtesies and discussions on strengthening bilateral ties between Ghana and Guyana, particularly in areas of governance, education, and cultural exchange.

The Vice President’s presence at the celebrations reflects Ghana’s ongoing engagement with CARICOM nations and its commitment to South-South cooperation.
