The program which was organized under the theme “The Face of Legal Migration” brought together key actors in the migration sector.

The Ministry of Employment and Labour Relations, International Organization for Migration, Immigration Service, Ministry of Interior, Royal Embassy of Saudi Arabia, United States of America Embassy, and Civil Society Organizations on Migration were duly represented.

Speaking at the forum, the Chairman of GHAPEA, Alhaj Saeed Shereef prides the association in their efforts in providing gainful employment for Ghanaians abroad.

He also used the opportunity to galvanize the support of stakeholders in flushing out illegal migration agencies from operating in the country.

“These illegal agencies operate with impunity, as you all know, dragging the name of this noble business into disrepute and causing a lot of harm to our dear country Ghana. We hereby plead to the government and all other concerned authorities to help us eliminate these unscrupulous illegal agencies, who are not only causing harm to Ghana’s good reputation  but also pushing us out of business,” he added.

The Minister for Employment and Labour Relations Iqnatius Baffour Awuah assured of the ministry’s support in regularizing the operations of migration companies.
