Mr Awinador-Kanyirige who is also Ghana’s Permanent Representative to the African Union and United Nations Economic Commission for Africa. Ghana's envoy to Ethiopia, Mr William Awinador-Kanyirige, has presented his letters of credence to the President of Ethiopia, Mr Mulatu Teshome. Relations between Ghana and Ethiopia dates back to the days of Dr Kwame Nkrumah and his Ethiopian counterpart, Emperor Haile Sellassie and their alliance for African liberation and unity. Ghana is also the first independent African state to have establish a diplomatic mission in Addis Ababa. This falls in line with President Akufo-Addo's 60th independence anniversary speech emphasising the need to honour all Ghanaian heroes towards mobilising the youth for the future.
