Lady Dentaa Amoateng MBE, Chief Executive Officer of GUBA Enterprise, has ruled out the possibility of assuming a political office.
Dentaa, who was recently named by Foreign Affairs Minister Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa as a recipient of a diplomatic passport, said that although her work has had a positive impact on the Ghanaian community, she does not intend to take a political appointment.
Speaking in an interview with Kwame Dadzie and Doreen Avio on Hitz FM on Tuesday, September 23, 2025, she said: “Not now. I feel like I still have a lot of work to do. The work is huge. So I prefer to keep doing what I am doing. Because what I do affects the government anyway. It benefits the government. I want to be where I am. I am happy with where I am.”
Beyond her GUBA initiative, Dentaa has been instrumental in shaping Ghana’s creative landscape. Through projects such as The Dentaa Show, she has given Ghanaian arts and culture international visibility, while her networking platforms have connected Ghanaian creatives to global business opportunities.
She has also worked closely with industry stakeholders to promote Ghana’s tourism potential, and her influence has inspired collaborations between Ghanaian and international acts.
In the previous government, she served as a member of the Governing Board of the Ghana Tourism Authority.
