We Have 195 Countries In The World And Not 197; Dr. Hassan Ayariga Exposes Vice President


The founder and leader of the  All People's Congress (APC), Dr Hassan Ayariga has once again exposed the vice president of Ghana His Excellency Dr Alhaji Mahamud Bawumia on his address that, very soon Ghana card would be the official documents which will be use to travel across 197 countries in the world, meanwhile we have only 195 countries in the world.

Dr. Hassan says the Ghana Card cannot be used as a legitimate document to verify Ghanaians’ citizenship and identity.

It is sad and amazing to hear our Vice President Dr. Bawumia say Ghana Card will be used in 197 countries by 2022. Let me help him to understand the dynamics. Firstly, we have 195 countries in the world and not 197 countries. Secondly, he should mention one country in the world that its citizens can enter Ghana or any other country with their ID Card. 

ID cards are not travelling documents. The world accepts only Passports as travelling Documents, my senior brother. You will need a passport to enter any country and definitely a passport to return and not your Ghana Card. Please digitalise our Cedi my opinion. 

Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, delivering an address at the Ashesi University on Tuesday, announced that efforts are underway to get the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) to recognise the Ghana Card as an e-passport by the first quarter of next year.

When the process are complete, he said, an official ceremony would be held at the headquarters of ICAO in Montreal, Canada, to sign Ghana’s Certificate of Authority to recognise Ghana-Card as e-passports in ICAO countries.



“When this happens, holders of the Ghana Card will be allowed to board any flight to Ghana. Furthermore, the good news for diasporan Ghanaians is that when the Ghana Immigration Service is linked to the NIA architecture, diasporan Ghanaians who hold the Ghana card should not have to obtain visas to travel to Ghana,” Dr Bawumia added.
