Narendra Modi to Embark on Historic Visit to Ghana on July 2
The President of the Republic of Ghana, H.E. John Dramani Mahama, will host India’s Prime Minister, H.E. Narendra Modi, for a two-day official visit to Ghana from Wednesday, July 2 to Thursday, July 3, 2025, the Presidency has announced.
This landmark visit marks the first official trip by an Indian Prime Minister to Ghana in recent years and reflects the deepening strategic partnership between the two nations.
According to a statement signed by Presidential Spokesperson Felix Kwakye Ofosu, the visit underscores the warm and long-standing ties between Ghana and India, and both leaders are expected to use the opportunity to enhance cooperation across a range of sectors.
The agenda for Prime Minister Modi’s visit includes:
- A bilateral meeting with President Mahama at the Jubilee House.
- High-level discussions on trade, investment, agriculture, education, technology, healthcare and energy.
- An exchange of views on regional and global developments of mutual interest.
Bilateral agreements & joint press briefing
One of the key outcomes of the visit will be the signing of several bilateral agreements to expand collaboration frameworks between Accra and New Delhi. These agreements are expected to lay the foundation for increased economic and developmental engagement.
Following the signing ceremony, President Mahama and Prime Minister Modi will address a joint press conference, where further details of their cooperation roadmap will be shared.
To commemorate the visit, President Mahama will also host a State Dinner in honour of Prime Minister Modi and his accompanying delegation. The event will bring together key political figures, diplomats, and business leaders to celebrate the enduring friendship between Ghana and India.
The Presidency says the visit is expected to solidify bilateral ties, promote economic diplomacy, and open new avenues for technological and knowledge exchange between the two countries.
India has long been a strategic partner in Ghana’s development journey—supporting infrastructure, ICT, education, and industrial growth. This visit is seen as a significant step in building on those foundations.
