One meal- one mission: Chef Abbys calls on Mahama to champion Ghanaian cuisine
Popular Ghanaian culinary content creator Chef Abbys has publicly appealed to President John Dramani Mahama for an opportunity to discuss the future of Ghanaian cuisine and its potential to gain greater international recognition.
The renowned chef, whose real name is Abena Amoakoa Sintim-Aboagye, made the appeal in a post shared on X on May 30, 2026, expressing her desire to cook with the President while exploring ways to elevate Ghana's food culture globally.
"Sir JDMahama, I would be deeply honoured to cook with you someday. Over a meal, I'd love for us to explore the future of Ghanaian food, culture and how we can showcase our cuisine to the world. Thank you," she wrote.
Chef Abbys has become one of Ghana's most influential food ambassadors, building a strong following through content that celebrates traditional Ghanaian dishes and African culinary heritage.
Her efforts have earned her recognition beyond Ghana's borders. In recent years, she embarked on a food tour across the United Kingdom, where she hosted cooking masterclasses and introduced participants to authentic Ghanaian meals and cooking techniques.
She also attracted international attention after leading a menu takeover at Snapchat's UK headquarters, where more than 300 employees were served popular Ghanaian dishes, including jollof rice and fried yam.
Through these initiatives, Chef Abbys has consistently promoted Ghanaian cuisine to international audiences while highlighting the country's rich cultural identity through food.
Beyond her digital content, she currently runs the Chef Abbys School of Food (CASOF), an institution focused on culinary education and food entrepreneurship. She also organises food tours and interactive cooking experiences aimed at deepening appreciation for local dishes.
The culinary entrepreneur has consistently advocated for greater international recognition of Ghanaian cuisine, using food experiences, educational programmes and digital content to spotlight local flavours and traditions.
