This is a misfit.
This is a fine swiss chocolate cake to aponkye.
A capital city in a country in a 21C world with that level of filth and infrastructure absence and decadence does not deserve such a Mall.
Go to sleep,kid. Not everybody's negative minded like you. I bet you used to shit at the river bank too when you were in Ghana.
THE KEY IS INFRASTRUCTURE THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE COUNTRY INCLUDING FIBRE OPTIC INTERNET VERY ESSENTIAL. AGROBUSINESS, INDUSTRIES TO ADD VALUE, HIGHLY MECHANIZED AGRICULTURE AND FOOD STORAGE TO ERADICATE WASTE, SANITATION TO GEN ...

A VERY GOOD CONTRIBUTION BUT ALL MAY NOT COME AT ONE FELL SWOOP. THINGS ARE CHANGING IN GHANA THOUGH AT VERY SLOW PACE BUT SURELY WE WILL GET THERE. REMEMBER "ROME WAS NOT BUILT IN A DAY". ALL WE NEED IS PEACE TO ENABLE CONTI ...

Very true! Recycling for bio energy and solar energy. Water and Sanitation very important!!!!
hope it improves pensions
On occasions in our life hopes are raised high as the result of promises that have been given, only to see the hopes fizzle out because the promises do not come to fruition. Examples are many, but that is not the matter now. ...

As usual, there are nice projects here and there but we all know that without consistent electricity and water to the entire country, people will not be in the mood to patronize such a mall. Accra Mall and A&C are nice but ...

Good one there. But I want to ask if it is being financed by the gov't or its somebody's private business. Whatever it is, hopefully there will be similar one at least in each capital city.
And then you will know who is financing.
24 acre land : GHANA went to metric in
1976 ok so why still using acres?
sorry Max, but acres is whats being used when dealing with large size of land as in dis. ou only get the feets in the residential measurements when they tell u 80'x100'
No Miranda dear!!!
Acre is imperial
Hectare is metric
1 acre = 0.405 hectares
1 hectare is 10 000 sqm = 2.47 acres
Hope this helps
This is a well written article that delivers hope to the people of Ghana. I highly commend those brains that came together to design such a futuristic artifact. It will certainly change the way some of us think and live. Hope ...

yeah finally a shoppers world in Ghana. we will be there.
This is a very good project but please the traffic issue around this place should be taken seriously in long term, else it will be a waste of resources
A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.THE CHALLENGE IS ON.GHANAIANS LIKE CHALLENGES.LOCAL INVESTORS WILL ALSO TAKE CUE FROM WHAT IS HAPPENING.BELIEVE IT OR NOT LOCAL MARKETS WILL NOW BE DESIGNED TO MODERN STANDARDS.
What are we manufacturing in Ghana to sell in this mall? Everything will be imported.
Who is happy about it? only foolish people. Poor management in ghana. Wise will be if Water, Electricity, Roads, Schools and Hospitals problems are solved. Moreover I will be happy if at all they will try to build 2nd Interna ...

Well said but what about constant electricity supply and water?
I think they can manage to buy electric generator plant,with sufficient power, enough for the recint and for the close vecinities around, for their own bussiness when the national power is "off".They could even add to every c ...
