President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has revealed that former Cuban leader Fidel Castro predicted that he would, one day become the head of state of Ghana.

He made the disclosure during a meeting with his Cuban counterpart, President Miguel Diaz-Cancel, in Havana, where he is on a three-day official visit.

Paying tribute to the leader of the Cuban Revolution, who ruled for almost five decades, he noted that it was during the time of Fidel Castro that Cuba emerged as a reliable friend of Africa.
