Nuhalenya-Ada , Ghana – July 21st, 2025- The Minister for Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts, Hon. Abla Dzifa Gomashie has paid a working visit to the Nkyinkyim Museum as part of efforts to strengthen partnerships with private cultural institutions and boost tourism in Ghana.
During the visit, the Minister, accompanied by key stakeholders, met with the Chief Executive Officer of the Nkyinkyim Museum. The meeting focused on exploring opportunities for strategic collaboration between the Ministry — along with its agencies — and the Museum, with the ultimate aim of enhancing tourist inflows and experiences both into and within the country.
Discussions centered on how the Museum’s unique cultural offerings could be integrated into Ghana’s broader tourism development agenda.
