President John Dramani Mahama has arrived in Singapore for a three-day State Visit aimed at deepening bilateral ties and expanding cooperation across multiple sectors, including trade and investment, education, science and innovation, urban development, agribusiness, and the digital economy.
During the visit, President Mahama is scheduled to hold bilateral discussions with Singapore’s President, H.E. Tharman Shanmugaratnam, and the Prime Minister, The Hon. Lawrence Wong.
