Cadman Atta Mills, the brother of the late former President John Evans Atta Mills, has shared a lighthearted story about his recent visit to the Ghana Embassy, leaving many social media users amused.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday, 1st November, 2025, Cadman Atta Mills revealed that he visited the Ghana Embassy on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, to help his American granddaughter secure a visa. According to him, the visit was not officially planned as he went there “uninvited.”
He humorously described how he dressed “for battle,” wearing a leather jacket and ready for any possible challenge. However, what he met at the embassy was far from what he expected. Instead of chaos or long delays, he found the place “very quiet” and, surprisingly, “shockingly efficient.”
The economist and politician said he was even placed in a comfortable office alone, surrounded by beautiful statues and fine paintings, though the artworks were not hanging on the walls. He added a playful note saying he was glad he still had access to his phone, which allowed him to post his disagreements with government policies online while waiting at the embassy.
Many Ghanaians who came across his post admired his sense of humor and honesty. Some social media users commented that it was refreshing to hear a public figure commend government institutions for being efficient, even when they often face criticism for poor service delivery.
Cadman Atta Mills’ story has since generated a lot of positive engagement online, with many appreciating how he used humor to highlight improvement in public service operations.
