In his speech, President Mahama urged the international community to take decisive action on critical global issues, including lifting the blockade on Cuba, ending the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, tackling climate change, and granting Africa a permanent seat on the UN Security Council.
Speaking on Channel One Newsroom, the Committee’s Vice Chairperson, Cletus Dapilah, described Mahama’s presentation as courageous and impactful. “I want to commend President Mahama for showing boldness, capacity, knowledge, and experience at the UN General Assembly,” he said.
