The executive members and patrons of the Gonjaland Association UK & Ireland (GLUK) paid a courtesy visit to Ghana’s High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, Sabah Zita Benson.
This marked their first official meeting since she assumed office.
The meeting featured productive discussions on a range of issues affecting Gonja citizens living in the UK, as well as ways in which the High Commission could support the association.
Both parties acknowledged that many of these challenges are shared by other Ghanaian communities across the United Kingdom.
Mrs Sabah Zita Benson expressed her willingness to lead and support community-based initiatives focused on key social issues, including health, legal awareness, and knife crime.
The President of GLUK, Rashid Seidu, in turn, affirmed the association’s commitment to supporting the High Commission’s mission and offered to serve as a liaison between Her Excellency and the wider Gonja community.
He also highlighted GLUK’s aspiration to promote cultural awareness and preserve the Gonja language among children born in the diaspora, emphasising the importance of engaging younger generations as future leaders and custodians of the community’s heritage.
GLUK expressed its appreciation to Mrs Sabah Zita Benson and her team for the warm hospitality extended to them and reaffirmed its commitment to fostering a strong, professional working relationship going forward.
