The Minister-designate for Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has assured Ghanaians that no diplomatic property will be sold under his tenure if approved by Parliament.
Addressing concerns over the sale and mismanagement of Ghana’s diplomatic assets abroad, Ablakwa reaffirmed his commitment to protecting state properties during his vetting before the Appointments Committee.
“I am currently championing the Protection of State Assets Bill, which I have introduced in Parliament with bipartisan support. I cannot be seen endorsing the sale of any diplomatic property.”
“I make this pledge—under my watch, no diplomatic asset will be sold. Rather, they will be safeguarded,” he stated when he appeared before the Appointments Committee on Friday January 31, 2025.
His remarks come amid heightened public scrutiny over the handling of Ghana’s foreign properties, with calls for stricter measures to prevent their disposal.
