President Nana Addo Akufo-Addo has bestowed Ghanaian citizenship upon the legendary musician Stevie Wonder.

The announcement, made through the president’s official channels, marks a symbolic embrace of Wonder as a cherished member of the African family.

President Akufo-Addo’s statement highlighted Wonder’s immense talent, humanitarian efforts, and profound connection to the African continent.

By accepting Ghanaian citizenship, Wonder not only honors the nation’s history and values but also aligns himself with the goals of unity and cultural exchange championed during the Year of Return.

Wonder’s decision to make Ghana his home resonates with a tradition of diasporans who have contributed significantly to the nation’s fabric.

The president cited notable figures like George Padmore, Rita Marley, Maya Angelou, and W.E.B. du Bois as predecessors who found solace and purpose in Ghana.
