Foreign Minister assures safety of Ghanaians and Africans in Morocco

Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

The Minister for Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has assured that Ghanaians and all Africans living in Morocco are safe, refuting widely circulated videos on social media that falsely claim some 700 Africans are being massacred.

In a Facebook post on Sunday, March 23, the Minister disclosed that he had received these assurances from the Moroccan Ambassador to Ghana, Her Excellency Imane Ouaadil, following fruitful and reassuring discussions with her.

He clarified that the video in question is an old recording from a border incident that took place on June 24, 2022.

According to him, that tragic and unfortunate event resulted in the loss of 23 lives, but he emphasized that Moroccan and Spanish authorities have since investigated the matter.

He further noted that no Ghanaian has been killed.

Mr. Ablakwa highlighted that the Ambassador’s assurances come at a time when the Kingdom of Morocco has decided to double its scholarships for Ghanaian students from 90 to 180, starting this year.

“Morocco and Ghana have also agreed to initiate a visa waiver agreement for all category of travelers from both countries. The agreement will be presented to our Parliaments for ratification shortly.

We have both additionally pledged to deepen collaboration in Agribusiness, Tourism and Security,” he wrote.

READ FULL STATEMENT BELOW

I have held fruitful and assuring discussions with the Moroccan Ambassador to Ghana, Her Excellency Imane Ouaadil.

She has assured that Ghanaians and all Africans living in Morocco are safe contrary to the widely circulated videos on social media falsely claiming that some 700 Africans are being massacred.

Apparently, the footage in issue is an old 24th June, 2022 border incident which led to the tragic, unfortunate and condemnable loss of 23 lives. That deplorable incident has since been investigated by Moroccan and Spanish authorities. It is worth noting that no Ghanaian casualty was recorded.

Her assurances come at a time the Kingdom of Morocco has decided to double scholarships for Ghanaian students from 90 to 180 beginning this year.

Morocco and Ghana have also agreed to initiate a visa waiver agreement for all category of travelers from both countries. The agreement will be presented to our Parliaments for ratification shortly.

We have both additionally pledged to deepen collaboration in Agribusiness, Tourism and Security.
