President John Dramani Mahama will on Friday, 17 October 2025, host the Prime Minister of Grenada, Honourable Dickon Amiss Thomas Mitchell, for bilateral talks at The Presidency in Accra.
The meeting, which forms part of efforts to deepen cooperation between Ghana and Grenada, will focus on strengthening ties in areas of trade, education, tourism, and culture.
According to a statement from the Presidency, Prime Minister Mitchell will arrive in Accra on Thursday, 16 October 2025, at 4:00 p.m., for a two-day official visit.
He will be accompanied by Grenada’s Chief of Staff, Minister for Foreign Affairs, Trade and Export Development, and other top government officials.
“The visit is a reflection of the growing partnership between Ghana and Grenada and our shared commitment to South-South cooperation,” the statement noted.
Shortly after his arrival, Prime Minister Mitchell and his delegation will take part in the first Ghana–Grenada Political Consultation Meeting at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration. The discussions are expected to explore new areas of collaboration between the two countries.
On Friday morning, President Mahama will formally welcome the Grenadian leader at The Presidency, where the two leaders will hold bilateral talks. The President will also host Prime Minister Mitchell to a State Luncheon following the meeting.
President Mahama, speaking ahead of the visit, said Ghana’s engagement with Grenada is “a continuation of our vision to build stronger ties with countries across the Caribbean that share historical and cultural connections with Africa.”
Prime Minister Dickon Mitchell is also scheduled to visit the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park before departing Ghana later on Friday.
The visit is expected to reaffirm both nations’ commitment to cooperation in trade, tourism, and cultural exchange.
In 2024, Ghana and Grenada signed bilateral agreements on visa waivers and cooperation in culture, trade, and education, laying the groundwork for stronger diplomatic and economic engagement.
“Ghana and Grenada have a shared history rooted in the African diaspora,” President Mahama added. “Our collaboration is not only about policy, it’s about reconnecting our peoples and building a future of shared prosperity.”
