April 2026
The Sarauniya International Development Organization (SIDO) is proud to announce that Her Royal Majesty Queen Ameenata Dikko Koita, the Sarauniya of Fulbe in Ashanti, Ghana, will embark on a historic five-week royal mission to the continent of Asia beginning April 12, 2026.
This landmark journey reflects Her Majesty’s continued commitment to global African unity, diaspora engagement, and cross-continental collaboration. The tour will commence in Taiwan and continue through Japan, Malaysia, the Philippines, South Korea, and Singapore.
During this significant mission, Queen Ameenata will represent not only her role as Founder of the Sarauniya International Development Organization (SIDO), but also His Royal Majesty King Osman Ahmed Koita, the Laamiido of Fulbe, and the Fulbe Kingdom in Ashanti, Ghana.
Throughout the visit, Her Majesty will meet with African diaspora communities, cultural leaders, students, entrepreneurs, and key stakeholders to strengthen relationships, promote cultural identity, and explore opportunities for economic empowerment and sustainable development partnerships.
“This mission represents a powerful step toward reconnecting and uplifting African descendants across the globe,” said Queen Ameenata. “Our shared heritage transcends borders, and through unity, dialogue, and collaboration, we can build sustainable futures for our people—wherever they may reside.”
The royal itinerary will include:
Community engagement forums with African diaspora groups
Cultural exchange events highlighting Fulbe heritage and African traditions
Strategic meetings focused on investment, education, and development initiatives
Youth empowerment discussions and mentorship opportunities
As Founder of SIDO, Queen Ameenata continues to expand her global humanitarian footprint, advocating for education, healthcare access, women’s empowerment, and economic development across Africa and within diaspora communities worldwide.
This historic visit marks one of the most extensive outreach efforts by the Sarauniya to African communities in Asia, reinforcing SIDO’s mission to build meaningful bridges between Africa and its global diaspora while elevating the presence and voice of the Fulbe Kingdom on the international stage.
Media coverage opportunities and public engagement schedules will be released in the coming days.
