Ghana is never going to collapse; Ghana is going to come back stronger and build better. And I’m very confident of that because of where I sit,” he added.

He said, “I’m seeing businesses that are willing to do real estate and data centers because they think Ghana is the best country despite everything; to scale up on ICT, especially Fintech. And beyond that, we are seeing people [foreign investors] who are coming in to do agriculture and manufacturing because they believe that with our policies, we have our Ghana which will be a good place to scale up production and value addition.” “So, the interest is there, even in the 1D1F we are seeing foreign interest coming significantly.
