President John Dramani Mahama has pledged Ghana’s support to Nigeria in its natural leadership role as the two countries collaborate in efforts to ensure economic integration for the ECOWAS sub-region.
President Mahama was speaking at a ceremony to receive the letters of credence of the Nigerian High Commissioner to Ghana, Ademola Oluseyi Onafonoka, on Thursday.
He said: “The relation between the two countries are historic and based on common values and culture and hopes this close relation continues.”
President Mahama asked the Nigerian High Commissioner to continue from where his predecessors left off.
He said he hopes that during the stay of Mr. Onafonoka the two nations will be able to move the ECOWAS integration project further and create the situation where “the people will be able to interact and carry out their businesses without unnecessary restrictions.”
On his part, Mr. Onafonoka said “he will ensure Nigerian traders in Ghana adhere to the ECOWAS trading laws.”
“I pledge I will keep talking to them so that they work according to the laws of Ghana and that of ECOWAS,” he said
