Ghana has joined the League of African Nations to present the Ratified Instrument of the African Union Convention on Cross-Border Cooperation to the African Union Commission at a ceremony at the African Union Commission Headquarters at Addis Ababa on Monday 4 September.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ghana has thus become the 8th country to ratify the Convention, having signed the agreement to the Convention on 4 July 2017. The agreement was further ratified by the Parliament of Ghana on 9 February 2023.<\/p>\n

Making the presentation on behalf of Ghana at the African Union Commission, the National Coordinator of Ghana Boundary Commission, Major General Emmanuel Kotia, stated that Ghana had now fulfilled its obligation by depositing the instrument of the ratified Convention signed by the President of the Republic of Ghana, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, on 25 April 2023.<\/p>\n

The instrument was received by the Director and legal Counsel of the African Union Commission, Dr. Guy Fleury-Ntawari, in the presence of officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ghana Embassy in Ethiopia.<\/p>\n
