The Minister for Lands and Natural Resources, Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah (MP), has urged African nations to align domestic reforms with Pan-African objectives, indicating that the continent stands on the threshold of true integration, dependent on the collective willingness of all key stakeholders.
Speaking at a Policy forum at the ongoing “Investing in Africa Mining Indaba 2026”, Mr. Buah, asserted, “Despite our challenges, Africa stands on the threshold of true integration.
“Our success hinges on our collective will to align national reforms with continental goals, building institutions that transcend political cycles and fostering a transparency that earns both investor confidence and citizen trust.”
He highlighted Ghana’s experience as a model of effective governance. “Integration is a marathon, not a sprint. Ghana’s journey proves that through good governance, a structured framework, and resilience, we can move from aspiration to achievement,” he said.
Calling for immediate systemic action, the Minister added, “Let us build the systems today that make an integrated Africa not just a possibility, but an inevitability.” He stressed that transparency and robust institutions are key to turning aspirations into concrete results.
The Ministerial address is expected to shape upcoming policy reforms aimed at strengthening African unity and investor confidence.
