The Awardees included former first lady Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings and Mr Amarkai Amatefio, former Swedish Consul in Ghana .
while Mrs Rawlings was conferred with Honourary Woman of the Moment and Ambassador of Woman into Politics in West Africa award, Mr Amatefio received an Honourary Ambassador of International Relations and Doctor of Social Service.
Conferring the awards on Monday, Dr Divine Gabriel Brefo, the President and Vice Chancellor of Peristrofi Masters Theology International described the awardees as as distinctive leaders with proven track record, dignity and self-discipline. He said these leaders are without “questionable” character in their area of success and achievement.
He stated that Mrs. Rawlings' desire to see the emancipation of women at all levels of development and her contribution to socio-economic development has earned her the awards.
“You played a crucial role in the adoption of the “Intestate Succession Law,” which was applicable to the survivor of anyone dying without a will.”
Dr Brefo also described Mr Amatefio as someone who contributed to the transformation of international relations.
“You have served Ghana and the international community with distinction, dignity and honour without any records of corruption and indiscipline,” he added.
On behalf of the awardees, Mr Amatefio expressed gratitude to the organisers for recognising their contribution to the progress of Ghana and pledged to promote the relations between Ghana and Sweden.
