Mr Atipault, who doubles as a Government Spokesperson presented the letter from President Sassou Nguesso to Vice President Alhaji Aliu Mahama, at his residence in Accra.
He said the three-day forum, which takes place from October 27 to October 30, would focus on the harnessing of agriculture for Africa’s growth as well as the infrastructural development of the continent.
The meeting is being organised by the African Union Commission and UNESCO with technical support from UNDP.
Mr Atipault said the internationally acclaimed leadership of Ghana would be needed at the forum to address the needs of Africa and the developing countries.
