Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa is assuring Ghanaians that if he’s approved as Minister for Foreign Affairs, no diplomatic properties will be sold off during his time in office.
This commitment is likely to ease some concerns and give people confidence in his ability to manage the country’s foreign affairs.
Ablakwa while addressing concerns about the sale of diplomatic properties aboard, reaffirmed that he’s got Ghana’s back when it comes to protecting its diplomatic assets abroad.
He emphasized that he’s committed to safeguarding state properties, and that’s a big deal, especially considering the controversies surrounding the sale and mismanagement of these assets.
“I am currently championing the Protection of State Assets Bill, which I have introduced in Parliament with bipartisan support. I cannot be seen endorsing the sale of any diplomatic property.”
“I make this pledge under my watch, no diplomatic asset will be sold. Rather, they will be safeguarded,” he stated during his vetting session on Friday January 31, 2025.
