Former President of Ghana, John Dramani Mahama has been named as one of the keynote speakers at the African Development Conference to be held at Harvard University.
Mr Mahama, according to organisers, will touch on his experience leading Ghana through massive infrastructure development and his work focusing on jobs, stability, and development.
The event slated for March 31 to April 1, 2017 will revisit the enduring, yet dynamic and elusive, concept of "Pan-Africanism" as it takes shape in the twenty-first century and invite conversations on the increasing importance of cross-border and international cooperation and partnership for the continent.
The conference will explore creative, collaborative approaches to African challenges and opportunities. These include governance and human rights, education, infrastructure, public health, gender and income inequality, Africa's economies and urban development.
It is also expected to bring together policy makers, innovative business leaders, accomplished academics, leaders of civil society organizations and other distinguished individuals to foster productive dialogue about Africa's future.
The event endeavors to move beyond raising awareness about the challenges facing Africa by highlighting innovative thinking and promoting those who are working to effect real change in their country or throughout the continent.
Other keynote speakers are Adv Thulisile (Thuli) Nomkhosi Madonsela, Forbes Africa Person of the Year 2016 and Mrs. Folorunso Alakija, a businesswoman who was listed among Forbes' 100 Most Powerful Women in the world.
It would be recalled that H.E former president of Ghana, John Mahama was recently honoured with African Political Leader of The Year 2016, put together by African Leadership Magazine in South Africa. Prior to that, he was the Keynote speaker at Kenyan Private Sector Alliance (KEPSA), where he delivered lecture on "The Economy In The Light of Elections And Conducting Free And Fair Elections."

That magazine is a sister magazine of Ovation who cares? Who invited him to Havard? The story is telling us he is going to give talks about Dubai circle infrastructure and talk about Pan Africanism,all these are the work of lazy ndc members who instead of finding work to do think let us sell him by creating this but who cares? Ndc can waist their time creating unnecessary forums and talks making John the ***barred word*** Mahama one of the speakers wouldn't change the mess, the hardship,his visionless, the suffering and misery he visited on Ghanaians. If he was better in the eyes of Ghanaians they wouldn't have voted massively to drive him out so creating hoax forums and making him speaker with names only known by the ndc will never change the MI ds of Ghanaians who his bogus government mistreated them. There is no way Ghanaians will vote for the ndc to come back to make the lives of Ghanaians worst. The good people of our country have had enough and deserve better. Anyway! Where is ndc Dela Cofie? He is a wanted man in Ghana for defrauding a businessman,anybody with idea of his where about should report to the nearest police station. Ndc Akronfuo party,is this the party condemning every good thing of this compassionate government for political points hoping Ghanaians will be st*pid to listen to their bullsh*t and bring them back to continue with their ste*ling? Somebody tell Yamin,Omane Boamah and those loud mouth to find job to do since ndc is yamutu. Omane Boamah can apply for job at Obenefo clinic. Nani*ma no position is permanent next time when you see an older person carrying load you will greet first before you carry his load. Hahahahaha! Ndc in opposition for just 2 months and are hungry and screaming go find work to do,agriculture is going to boom so go get cutlass and hoe and go into farming to bring farm produce for the people you mistreated to get food to eat. NANI*MA ! Hahahahahaha!
