James Gyakye Quayson, Ghana's Deputy Minister-designate for Foreign Affairs, has strongly criticized the high visa fees imposed by foreign embassies, arguing that they exploit Ghanaian youth and hinder travel opportunities.
He claims that despite expensive fees, up to 95% of visa applications are denied, and calls for a review of visa policies, including the introduction of refundable fees. Quayson is also advocating for the expedited passage of the Dual Citizenship Amendment Bill to make it easier for Ghanaians abroad to return and contribute to national development. He emphasizes the need for public education on irregular migration and urges the government to encourage the return of dual citizens.
Overall, Quayson is positioning himself as a champion for fairer immigration policies and greater engagement with the Ghanaian diaspora.
