The German Ambassador to Ghana, H.E. Frederick Landshoft, has underscored the strategic importance of the Aflao border, describing it as the country’s second most critical entry point after the Accra International Airport. He emphasized that the Aflao post holds “outstanding importance” for Ghana’s security and economic activities.
He made the remarks during a brief ceremony at Aflao in the Volta Region, where he presented four weather sheds to GIS. The sheds are designed to shield officers from harsh weather conditions, including heavy rains and scorching sun, while on duties.
Receiving the donation on behalf of the Service, Deputy Comptroller-General in charge of Finance and Administration, Evelyn Lostu, expressed appreciation for the gesture, noting that it would enhance the working environment of GIS personnel stationed at the border.
The event was attended by Ghana’s High Commissioner to Togo, H.E. Captain George Nfojoh (Rtd.), a representative of the Paramount Chief of Aflao, Torgbi Kpambi Vedzesu V, the Municipal Chief Executive, Hon.. Nicholas Kwabla Worclachie and other dignitaries.
