The government of Ghana has begun processes towards the implementation of a visa-free policy for all Africans this year, President Akufo-Addo has said.
Currently, Rwanda, Seychelles, The Gambia and Benin are the only African countries that provide visa-free entry for all African citizens.
Speaking at the opening of the 2024 Africa Prosperity Dialogue on Thursday (25 January), Akufo-Addo said the government is committed to ensuring visa-free for all Africans.
He was speaking on the theme, “Developing Prosperity in Africa: Produce, Add, Value and Trade”
“Many of you had to acquire a visa to come to this event, we made a special arrangement for this conference, we reduced the visa acquisition fee by 50%, and we were thus able to receive your visa on arrival,” the president said.
“The government of Ghana is committed to ensuring visa-free for all Africans, for all Africans travelling into our country, and the process has begun to get the policy implemented this year,” Akufo-Addo added.
