This commendation was part of Mahama's diplomatic engagements at the summit, which brought together leaders from Commonwealth member countries to discuss priorities and enhance collaboration.\n\nIn a separate meeting with UK Prime Minister, Mahama expressed the need for a stronger partnership between Ghana and the United Kingdom, following Britain's acknowledgment of the atrocities committed during the Transatlantic Slave Trade and its willingness to engage in a formal apology and structured dialogue on reparatory justice.
