It’s easy to say the problem is leaders but for me “our leaders are a true reflection of who we are as a people” until the voters clout for a serious change of the whole governance system it will take forever . Politicians won’t change cos the current system benefit them . It all starts with the voters(the people)

      @@akosuadiamond2731 We are mislead by this idea that minerals are riches of a country. Not true! To get to those minerals, you need technology. That technology can only come from education. Education requires investment on people and investment on infrastructures. In other words, you need a government with big resources to educate the children in science and tech and at the same time build big projects that will employ those educated.
      However, when you have a small population, you can't gather enough fund to build big projects. When you can't feed your children because you have drought and poor soil, your main goal is not big projects but food safety.
      Agriculture is really the gateway to progress. When people are fed, they can think and research. Europe and America have the most important natural resources: water, fertile soils and they are able spend their time on education.
      For example, do you know why Ghana or Ivory Coast are richer than Mali or Senegal? Look at their Agriculture and population! And you know Mali has gold, uranium and many other minerals, but it is a barren land, underpopulated.
      Even Nigeria's power is because of population size and Agriculture.

      @@elvangulley3210 That's 💯 % true. Those who are saying it's not true have not lived in other African countries. They only try to compare Ghana to European, American and other well developed Asian countries. Ghana started its latest development only about 22 years ago and the results are clear. The country has changed completely. If you look very carefully, the hardships on Ghanaians is self influenced, largely caused by the people themselves and not the government. A large number of people have moved into the main cities where there's no job opportunities for them instead of staying in the rural areas where farming, fishing, gold mining and other means of employment can easily be found. This has created a large number of unemployed workers and thus created an imbalance of the economy. Most of the people think the sales of the raw natural resources in the country should automatically bring money into their pockets without a job. A purely African way of thinking.

    I think you're beating about the bush as to the initial firing rockets of the engine of Ghana's economy. It is " Flight Lieutenant Jerry Rawlings." This great man worked tirelessly on the extermination of corruption. I think it is being ungrateful not including him in the conversation of Ghana's successes. Then came great leaders that continued to ensure good government.
