Dr. Christian Kwetey Kweitsu, Chief Executive Officer of KRISPAT Hearing Centre Ghana Ltd, is set to receive international recognition at the 2nd Edition of the 100 Most Influential Persons Awards – Africa, scheduled for September 25, 2026, at the M Hotel in Kigali, Rwanda.

The event is being presented as a gathering of African leaders, business personalities and changemakers. Public information about the event identifies The Business Executive Ghana, International Business Council Africa and African Chamber for Trade among the organisations behind the awards.
Continuing advocacy
His professional activities have included hearing-health outreach and education. A March 2026 outreach programme associated with KRISPAT Hearing Centre involved hearing-health screening and education at the Regworld Training Center in the Western Region, according to a professional post shared on his LinkedIn profile.
The upcoming Kigali recognition therefore comes as another international platform for highlighting work in a healthcare area that often receives less public attention.
Message to Ghanaians
Reacting to the recognition, Rev. Dr. Kweitsu expressed appreciation for being named among Africa’s influential personalities and encouraged Ghanaians to continue contributing to national development, regardless of how small their individual efforts may appear.
He stressed the importance of perseverance and service to society, expressing the view that sustained contributions to Ghana and humanity can eventually receive recognition.
The 100 Most Influential Persons Awards – Africa is scheduled for September 25, 2026, at M Hotel, Kigali, Rwanda. An event announcement published by IGIHE confirms the date, venue and participation of African leaders, changemakers and business personalities.
For Kweitsu, the Kigali event is expected to provide an international platform to spotlight Ghanaian contributions to hearing healthcare and the wider effort to improve awareness, prevention and support for people living with hearing challenges.
