Today, I had the privilege of presenting my credentials to @JDMahama, officially starting my time as British High Commissioner to Ghana (@UKinGhana). After 15 years away, I am honoured to call Ghana home again and am grateful for the warm welcome. #ForwardTogether #EseNeTekrema

@aselassie Great to hear this news. Looking forward to seeing you in Oxford one of these days.

Very happy to share that from September 1, I will join Oxford University’s Blavatnik School of Government and the Economic Policy Network, respectively, as a visiting fellow and principal advisor.

Hey @TheRealBolaRay, your clip makes the 🇬🇧 Residence look like the place to be in Accra 😉 Thanks for joining us and for sharing your thoughts on how to make Ghana’s media landscape even stronger

One of Ghana’s strengths: its vibrant media landscape Talking with media CEOs was a reminder that the industry’s strength depends on having courage, showing leadership and creating pathways for passion and ideas to become stories That’s why the UK now co-chairs @MediaFreedomC

Thank you @ibrahim_mahama for hosting me at Red Clay Studio in #Tamale Lots to reflect on - especially the need to preserve our history and bring it to life. And that includes the shared history of Ghana and UK So that we remember the stories of the past and to inspire new ones

The whole world in a lecture hall! Great to join Northern Youth Parliament at @UDSGhana. This year, they didn’t simulate Ghana’s Parliament, but the Commonwealth with its 56 members Clearly, the next generation is not only ready for national governance but global cooperation

An honour to exchange warm greetings and pleasantries with His Majesty King Charles III at St. James’s Palace. And he loves Ghana’s famous FUGU. 🇬🇭 🇬🇧

Future leaders in action! There was a real sense of purpose in the room with Northern Youth Parliament As we marked Commonwealth Day, their maiden #Commonwealth simulation showed how deeply young people care about democracy, good governance, peace and security #UKBeyondAccra

Yesterday I was warmly hosted by The Rt Hon Yvette Cooper (MP), Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs of the United Kingdom. Our exceptionally fruitful and substantive engagement focused on enhancing our historical and inseparable Ghana-UK relations. We agreed on innovative pathways to increase trade which is already up by 10%, creating new markets for Ghanaian and UK businesses and how we can incubate more opportunities for young entrepreneurs. We also discussed security cooperation and counterterrorism initiatives. Ghana and the UK will hold a grand investment summit in May this year under the distinguished patronage of President Mahama to sustain the great gains in our revitalized relations. Ghana and the UK are determined to solidify our strategic alliance. 🇬🇭 🇬🇧

Regional security is a key element of the 🇬🇧-🇬🇭 partnership Good to discuss with Northern Regional Minister and Regional Security Council the key risks they’re facing - violent extremism, drug trade, border security - and how we can work together to address them #UKBeyondAccra

It’s great to be back in Tamale with colleagues from @UKinGhana We’re here to listen and deepen partnerships between UK and Northern Region - engaging with leadership of the region, security agencies, businesses, youth leaders and the vibrant art scene 🇬🇧 🤝🇬🇭 #UKBeyondAccra

Proud to mark #CommonwealthDay and the shared commitments that bring us together. The Commonwealth symbolises the strength of partnership across our diverse family of 56 nations, united by shared values and a commitment to human rights, democracy and cooperation.

Today is International Women’s Day - a moment to celebrate achievements, but also to focus minds on ensuring that every woman and girl is safe, valued and empowered. See video message from @UKinGhana below.

Westminster Abbey organised an Evensong Service in honour of Ghana’s 69th Independence Anniversary, during which H.E. Mrs Sabah Zita Benson delivered the second reading.

Thanks to @S_OkudzetoAblak and @GhanaMFA for the excellent exchange yesterday. Our teams may be reluctant for us to meet again given how many action points we create ;) - this time around migration, UN resolutions and global crises Safe travels for your trip to the 🇬🇧 next week

I just joined HE @JDMahama and HE @NJOAgyemang at Jubilee House for an impressive celebration of Ghana's 69th Independence Day. Congratulations to the Government and people of Ghana - and here’s to another peaceful and prosperous year ahead!

Thank you very much for hosting me. The formidable range of issues - and number of senior vsits - that we discussesd is testament to just how deep our bilateral partnerships are. Looking forward to working together during a busy year ahead. @GhanainUK @UKinGhana

Ayekoo! We just welcomed back last year’s #Chevening and #Commonwealth scholars Fantastic academic achievement Now the next chapter starts: applying new leadership and technical skills to support Ghana’s development 🇬🇧 - 🇬🇭 partnership: nurturing future leaders and innovators

Four years after Russia started its full-scale invasion, the UK and Ukraine stand united We are with Ukraine - for a just and lasting peace, and beyond Read my article on why this war matters for Ghana, jointly written with 🇩🇪🇫🇷🇳🇴🇪🇺🇪🇸🇧🇪🇯🇵🇩🇰🇳🇱🇦🇹🇮🇹🇨🇦🇨🇿🇨🇭  thebftonline.com/2026/02/24/24-…

Congratulations on a fantastic launch event at the British Residence in Accra @thenanaaba. Thanks for focussing attention on “safe spaces” for women and girls who have suffered from abuse and domestic violence Now onto London and good luck for the UK event of #womenofvalour

Great to join Ghana’s health leaders to celebrate the UK‑funded #FlemingFund’s impact. In 7 years, the partnership strengthened 17 AMR surveillance sites, upgraded 11 labs, trained nearly 1,000 experts, and generated data now improving patient care. But AMR is rising- over 23,000 deaths in 2021, with children under five most affected. As support winds down in 2026, strong domestic investment is essential to sustain labs, reagents, skilled staff and One Health coordination. The UK stands ready to keep partnering with Ghana for a healthier, more resilient future. 🇬🇭🤝🇬🇧
