The supreme sovereign authority of the World Diplomatic Federation (WODIF) in the United States has appointed Nana Owiredu Wadie I as the State Commissioner of Ghana.
The Provost Commissioner of Africa, Lord Nana Obokom ATA IX, sent a delegation led by Lilian Afreh-Sika Boateng, Secretariat Commissioner General to present the proposal.
Nana Owiredu Wadie I accepted the proposal for the impending induction in January 2024.
The invitation is strictly based on one or more of the following accomplishments by the chief; involvement in community development programs/events, exceptional voluntary services, health and legal aid.

Nana believes in the importance of justice and security in promoting socio-economic development, and these projects will ensure Peace and Security in the Eastern Region.
Furthermore, it proves his willingness and tendency to support Eastern Regional Peace Council programs.
In the field of education, Nana has recently completed and donated a 50-seater Smart lab and e-library facility for St. Peter’s Senior High School, Kwahu-Nkwatia, and has recently granted an orphan a full scholarship to study in the Doctor of Pharmacy program at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology.

These projects were all done in 2022 and manifest Nana's belief in the importance of education in shaping up the leaders of tomorrow and achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG)-4, ensuring Quality Education.
In less than two years, Nana Owiredu Wadie I successfully constructed and inaugurated a fully furnished, state-of-the-art multi-purpose Mother and Baby Unit Complex, encompassing a dedicated Mother Care Excellence Centre with a Nursing mothers’ hostel, conference room, and doctor’s offices for the Eastern Regional Hospital, Koforidua, as a donation to the entire Eastern Region of Ghana.

Against this backdrop, we propose Nana Owiredu Wadie I as a nominee for the esteemed role of Diplomatic Chief Bureaucrat and a fellow of the prestigious WODIF.
His numerous developmental projects and their profound impact on diverse communities undeniably qualify him for this honourable recognition.
