    Why should we as Ghanaians not invest in our industry?

    Another sound idea.Even the developed countries are competing among themselves to attract investments from those 2 countries. Create conditions to make it more attractive for them to invest in Ghana. The benefits are immense.

    This so-called professor is a fraud, he doesn't think of Ghanaians. Why are they always inviting foreigners to Ghana. We are capable of managing our own affairs.

  • Obenfo 7 years ago

    How worthy is your diploma if Ayitey is your Professor? He is so backward and naive, and sees nothing good of himself.

    We don't need Chinese and Indians before we achieve industrial development. They have their track records in Ghana. We need whoever has the resources but there should be no focus on Chinese and Indians.

    Prof I do agree with you to a certain extent. But please not the Chinese come in with their own workers, and how would benefit Ghanaians?
