Ghana, Morocco agree on visa waiver for all travelers

Ghana and Morocco have reached a significant agreement to implement a visa waiver for all categories of travelers from both nations.

Minister for Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, expressed optimism about the development and indicated that the agreement will soon be submitted to Parliament for formal ratification.

“We have both additionally pledged to deepen collaboration in agribusiness, tourism, and security,” he said after discussions with the Moroccan Ambassador to Ghana, Her Excellency Imane Ouaadil.

Describing the meeting as “productive and assuring,” Mr. Ablakwa noted that the Moroccan Ambassador had also addressed concerns regarding the safety of Africans in Morocco.

He emphasized that contrary to widely circulated social media videos alleging the massacre of approximately 700 Africans, the Moroccan government has assured that Ghanaians and all Africans living in the country are safe.
