The Member of Parliament for Klottey Korle, Zanetor Agyeman-Rawlings, has been elected Second Vice President of the Pan-African Parliament, securing a decisive victory with 131 votes against 51.
Her election represents a notable milestone for Ghana’s representation within the continental legislative body, reflecting strong support from lawmakers across Africa.
The Pan-African Parliament, an institution of the African Union, is mandated to promote regional integration, cooperation, and democratic governance among member states.
In her new role, Agyeman-Rawlings will serve on the Parliament’s bureau, the leadership body responsible for steering its affairs and advancing its legislative and advisory functions. Her elevation is expected to enhance Ghana’s influence in shaping continental policy discourse.
The appointment further strengthens Ghana’s presence in regional and international governance institutions, while consolidating Agyeman-Rawlings’ standing as a prominent figure in African parliamentary diplomacy.
