President John Dramani Mahama has nominated 15 individuals for ambassadorial and consular roles, including the legendary actress Kalsoume Sinare and former Member of Parliament Nii Amasah Namoale.
The nominations, which follow deliberations with the Council of State, are the first such appointments since President Mahama took office in January 2025. The list was presented in a letter from the President’s Office to the Minister of Foreign Affairs dated June 10, 2025.
