I\u2019m motivated to see that vision realised.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She explained that as a diplomat of long-standing, she had led or been part of landmarks in diplomacy and international relations with concrete outcomes.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, during Ghana\u2019s tenure at the UN Security Council (2021-23), she led the effort for the unanimous passage of Resolution 27\/19 in November 2023 to guarantee, for the first time, UN funding for Africa-led peace support operations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs Chair of ECOWAS Council of Ministers, I played an active role in the efforts to prevent coups in the region, and reform the institution\u2019s Supplementary Protocol on Democracy and Good Governance,\u201d she pointed out.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI engaged military leaders, who\u2019d taken power unconstitutionally, to develop roadmaps towards returning to constitutional rule.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI also led reforms of the ECOWAS Commission, introducing efficiencies and making huge savings that were re-directed to Community Programmes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI worked with colleague Ministers in Ghana to execute the \u2018Year of Return\u2019 and \u2018Beyond the Return\u2019 policies, yielding strong bonds, closer than ever before, with the African Union\u2019s sixth region, the Caribbean, and Global Africa.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Madam Botchwey also stated how she worked in concert with the G7 to address issues of international peace and security, democracy and the reform of the development co-operation framework.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy capacity for leading teams to achieve transformative results would serve the Commonwealth well in realising the vision of a \u2018New Commonwealth.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On her main plans and priorities for the job of Secretary-General of the Commonwealth, Madam Botchwey proposed six areas for repositioning the organisation to respond to the expectations of the hundreds of millions across the Commonwealth for a decent and fulfilling life.<\/p>\n<p>These are on Democracy; Commonwealth Values and Realising the Democratic Dividend; and Trade and Investment; Youth, Education, Skills, Innovation and Start Ups.<\/p>\n<p>The rest are on Climate Change, Small Island Developing States and Small States and Managing resources for an Effective Commonwealth Institution.<\/p>\n<p>If successful, Madam Ayorkor Botchwey, will thus become the second African, after Chief Emeka Anyaoku of Nigeria and also the second woman to occupy the position.<\/p>\n<p>Ghana, under the leadership of President Akufo-Addo,is hopeful and looking forward to the election of Madam Ayorkor Botchwey, which will bring honour to the nation in particular and Africa in general.<\/p>\n<p>The Commonwealth is an international association of 56 member states, the vast majority of which are former territories of the British Empire from which it developed.<\/p>\n<p>The Secretary-General is nominated by Commonwealth leaders and can serve a maximum of two terms of four years each.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>GNA<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>International relations experts have tipped Madam Shirley Ayorkor Botchwey, Ghana\u2019s Minister of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration, as the likely successor to the outgoing Commonwealth Secretary-General Madam Patricia Scotland Baroness Scotland of the United Kingdom.
