Ghana and Zambia have signed ten Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) aimed at strengthening their bilateral cooperation in key sectors such as trade, tourism, energy, agriculture, education, investment, and science and technology.
The agreements also introduce a visa‑free travel regime for all categories of passport holders.
The MoUs were signed during Ghanaian President John Dramani Mahama’s three-day working visit to the Southern African country.
In a statement on X, President Mahama noted the importance of the visa-free agreement, describing it as “an important step towards the free movement of our people on the African continent.”
He added that the agreements will deepen cooperation between Ghana and Zambia.
For his part, Zambia’s President Hakainde Hichilema welcomed the partnership, but called for a shift from just frameworks to implementation, stressing on the need for “quick and visible results” to both countries.
“Zambia is ready to facilitate investment, remove bottlenecks and provide full political support,” he noted.
