President John Dramani Mahama will undertake a three-day State Visit to the Republic of Zambia from February 4 to 6, 2026, at the invitation of his Zambian counterpart, President Hakainde Hichilema.

The President will be accompanied by the First Lady of the Republic, Mrs. Lordina Dramani Mahama.

According to a statement signed by the Spokesperson to the President and Minister for Government Communications, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, the visit is aimed at strengthening diplomatic relations between Ghana and Zambia while deepening cooperation in trade, investment, and regional integration.

During the visit, President Mahama is expected to hold bilateral talks with President Hichilema on matters of mutual interest, including the enhancement of economic ties and the exploration of collaborative opportunities under the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).

A key highlight of the visit will be President Mahama’s address to the National Assembly of Zambia, where he is expected to outline Ghana’s vision for a more integrated, resilient, and prosperous Africa. He will also meet members of the Ghanaian community in Lusaka to interact with Ghanaians living and working in Zambia.

The Presidency noted that the State Visit underscores President Mahama’s commitment to advancing an Africa interconnected through improved transport infrastructure, expanded trade linkages, and the free movement of people and goods.
