Ghanaians in USA hail Akufo-Addo ahead of UN address
Nana Akufo-Addo will in the next few hours deliver his fifth statement at the UN General Assembly in the US
The President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, is in the United States to participate in the 76th session of the United Nations General Assembly High-Level at the UN headquarters in New York.
Ahead of his sessional address at the floor of UN to the General Assembly, Ghanaians abroad showed up at his hotel and at the Dag Hammarskjod Park to throw their support as he delivers his fifth statement to the United Nations.
This is the first year of the pandemic that the United Nations is meeting both physically and also virtually to address the world. The President will speak about hope after the pandemic during his statement.
Ghanaians abroad are using this opportunity to say thank you to the President of how he has managed the COVID pandemic, the economy and other aspects of the socioeconomic need of Ghanaians.
He is likely to reiterate his call for the developed world to help bridge the 2.5 trillion dollars needed for the developing world to achieve the seventeen (17) 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
As chairman of the regional bloc, Economic Community of West African States, (ECOWAS), President Akufo-Addo will most likely report on the political situation in Mali and Guinea, as well as seek the support of the UN and other inter-governmental organizations to deal with the situation in the ECOWAS sub-region.
The President will most likely zero in on Ghana’s ongoing efforts aimed at ensuring a full recovery of the economy from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and invite the rest of the world to come and do business in the country.
