The Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Tourism Authority (GTA), Akwasi Agyeman, has stepped down from his position.
Mr. Agyeman, who assumed office in January 2017, successfully guided the GTA through a challenging period, including the COVID-19 pandemic, and spearheaded its remarkable recovery and growth.
Under his leadership, international tourist arrivals surged from 355,108 in 2020 to 1,148,002 in 2023, exceeding pre-pandemic figures. Domestic tourism also experienced significant growth, with visitor numbers increasing from 456,000 in 2017 to 1.4 million in 2023.
