President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has urged Ghanaians to exhibit same level of excitement and commitment that characterized the “year of return” towards this year’s “Beyond the return”, to ensure its success.
According to the president, the importance of this initiative to Ghana’s trade and investment plans merits the collective participation of all citizens.
“As we begin the new initiative of ‘Beyond the Return’ which will entail that we engage in mutually beneficial trade, investment and cultural cooperation with the African Diaspora, I urge all Ghanaians to demonstrate same level of excitement and commitment that characterized the “Year of Return”
Akufo-Addo additionally commended Ghanaians for the success of the “year of return” with their hospitality and positive attitude.
“The welcoming attitude and the warm Ghanaian hospitality proved to be the strongest attraction to hundreds of thousands of our kith and kin from the African diaspora, who thronged our shores to commemorate the ‘year of return’. The proverbial Ghanaian hospitality won once more”
Addressing audiences via social media today and monitored by ghananewsonline.com.gh he asserted that collective efforts from everyone will ensure that Africa, particularly Ghana experience immense progress in the 21st Century.
“Together, I am confident that we can imbibe in ourselves a deep consciousness and understanding of the goals and history of the African peoples, to ensure that the 21st century is indeed, the African century”
