Ghana Emerging as a Digital Leader in Africa- Deputy Communication Minister

The Deputy Minister for Communication, Digital Technology and Innovations, Mr. Mohammed Adams Sukparu, has stated that Ghana is emerging as a leader in the digital landscape on the African continent.

Speaking on behalf of the sector minister, the Deputy Minister described this as a demonstration of Ghana’s commitment to embracing the digital future and positioning itself as a leader on the continent.

He made this statement at a dinner and awards night held at the Alisa Hotels in Accra last Thursday to bring the ICT week celebration to a close.

Mr. Sukparu emphasised that technology is not just about connectivity but about opportunities, empowerment, and inclusive growth for every Ghanaian.

He called on stakeholders to continue working together to build a robust, secure, and citizen-centred digital ecosystem for Ghana, noting that it was an occasion to appreciate contributions, strengthen networks, and reaffirm collective commitment to the journey ahead.

The Deputy Minister commended the National Information Technology Agency, its Governing Board, management, staff, and all partners for their tireless efforts in ensuring the success of the ICT Week celebration.

He assured them of the government’s continued support in providing the right policies, investments, and enabling environment to ensure that the ideas shared during the week are translated into real impact for the people.

The event brought together stakeholders from government, private sector, academia, and civil society to share ideas, showcase innovative solutions, and chart new pathways for Ghana’s digital trade transformation.
