Former President John Dramani Mahama will today, Friday, 27 January 2023, deliver a lecture on the theme: "Africa's strategic priorities and global role", at Chatham House, UK.

The lecture will, among other things, discuss the prospects for economic recovery and growth on the African continent in light of the recent debt crisis that has compelled African countries, including Ghana, to seek debt treatment under the G20 Common Framework.

Mr Mahama will be sharing with his audience his ideas and insights on the critical economic and governance reforms required for stability and prosperity across Africa.

He will also discuss priorities for regional integration and Africa's role and responsibilities in global economic governance.

Mr Mahama was accompanied by the National Chairman and leader of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia, Director of International Affairs of the party, Alex Segbefia, Deputy National Women Organizer, Abigail Elorm Akwambea, and the Deputy Treasurer of the party, Vida Addae.

The team, together with the former president, will hold a meeting with the UK/Ireland Chapter of the NDC as part of this visit.
