The four are ambassador for the Republic of France, Johanna Odonkor Swaniker, Ambassador for the Republic of Benin, Novisi Aku Abaidoo, Ambassador to the Royal Kingdom of Denmark, Edith Hazel and Ambassador for the   Republic of Korea, Elizabeth Nicol.

Bidding them farewell  in a ceremony at the flagstaff house,  President Mahama tasked them  to strengthen Ghana’s bilateral and economic relations and improve on investment in-flows into the country.

 With specific reference to the Republic of Korea, the president  said Korea  has resumed its Exim Bank support to Ghana, and that the Ghana Grid Company (GRIDCo) had received financial assistance to expand its transmission grid and charged the Ambassador designate to continue negotiation for the project.

On behalf of her colleagues, the Ambassador for Korea Edith Hazel  pledged they will deliver on their mandate.
