Ghana has formally launched its campaign for re-election to the International Telecommunication Union ITU Council and the Radio Regulations Board RRB, reinforcing its long-standing commitment to global digital governance. The announcement was made on 19 November 2025 in Baku, Azerbaijan, led by the Minister for Communication, Digital Technology and Innovations, Hon. Samuel Nartey George MP.
Speaking to delegates, the Minister highlighted Ghana's deep engagement with the ITU since joining the Union in 1957, noting the country's continuous service on the ITU Council since 2002. He underscored Ghana's active contributions across Radiocommunication, Standardisation and Development sectors through Study Groups, major conferences and regional coordination efforts.
Hon. George also emphasised Ghana's role as a continental leader in communications policy, pointing to the National Communications Authority's status as an ITU-certified training partner since 2019 - a designation that supports capacity building across Africa.
