Deputy Chief of Staff Nana Oye Bampoe Addo recently extended heartfelt congratulations to Asanteman Austria and their newly enstooled Ohemaa, underlining the vital roles of leadership, cohesion, and community service in Ghanaian culture.

The celebration took place on June 14, 2025, at the Vienna International Centre, coinciding with the First Resumed Sixteenth Session of the United Nations Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC) Implementation Review Group and the Open-Ended Intergovernmental Working Group on the Prevention of Corruption.

During this significant event, Nana Oye Bampoe Addo addressed a gathering of Ghanaians in Austria, as well as esteemed guests, during the enstoolment ceremony for the Vienna Hemaa (Gyaase Hemaa) and Adonten Hemaa.

In her remarks, Ms. Bampoe Addo urged the Ghanaian diaspora to foster solidarity and support one another while actively participating in community development initiatives.

She commended the diaspora for their vibrant involvement in Austria, highlighting their contributions to both their home nation and their host country. The Deputy Chief of Staff encouraged the youth to embrace their cultural roots while looking forward with ambition and a spirit of service.

She also acknowledged the efforts of the Asanteman Austria Executive Council and Ghana’s Ambassador to Austria, H.E. Matilda Alomatu Osei-Agyeman, praising their relentless commitment to the Ghanaian community abroad.

"Let us renew our dedication to the values that define us as Ghanaians: respect for our traditions, unity in our diversity, and an unyielding pursuit of excellence," Ms. Bampoe Addo urged the attendees.

In her remarks, H.E. Matilda Alomatu Osei-Agyeman highlighted that the Constitution of Ghana guarantees each individual the right to enjoy, practice, and promote their culture, language, and traditions.

She emphasised that chieftaincy is not only a cherished institution but also a protector of customary values and norms, as outlined in the constitutional framework.

The Embassy of Ghana expressed its honour in hosting the Deputy Chief of Staff at this momentous event, which celebrated the rich cultural heritage and leadership within the Ghanaian community in Austria.
