The Prime Minister of Denmark, Ms Mette Frederiksen, will embark on a two-day official visit to Ghana from Wednesday, November 24 to Thursday, to November 25, 2021, at the Danish Embassy in Accra.
An official statement issued by the Danish Embassy, and copied to Mybrytfmonline.com, said her visit would mark the 60-year anniversary of diplomatic relations between Denmark and Ghana.
The statement said the opposition leader from the Liberal Party of Denmark, Mr Jakob Ellemann-Jensen, would join the delegation.
Upon arriving in Ghana, Ms Frederiksen will be received by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, and Mrs Cecilia Abena Dapaah, the Minister for Sanitation and Water Resources.
During the visit, Ms Frederiksen will visit the Frigate Esbern Snare, which has been deployed to the Gulf of Guinea until April 2022.
“The Danish contribution is improving maritime security and deterring piracy in the area, where 30-40 Danish-operated ships are present on a daily basis,” it said.
The Prime Minister would also meet with Danish companies, Ghanaian CSOs and explore the extensive water cooperation between Denmark and Ghana, the statement added.
The statement affirmed that Ms Frederiksen would also visit Tema in connection with the city cooperation between Tema and Aarhus in Denmark.
