The Office of the President has issued a directive for the immediate recall of all Diplomatic and Service Passports issued during the tenure of former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.
In a letter dated January 14, Secretary to the President Callistus Mahama instructed the Chief Director of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to ensure that all holders of these passports submit them to the ministry by January 24.
The recall is aimed at enhancing the integrity of Ghana’s official travel documents and diplomatic engagements, aligning with the government’s commitment to proper use and administration of official travel documents.
Upon receipt, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will conduct a thorough review of the returned passports to ensure they meet current eligibility criteria for issuance.
