A confident gaze into the futureyes the African Diaspora is up to the task of developing Africa!
'Ghana is still barren for investors,' says Germany's Ambassador to Ghana Eberhard Schanze, who urges German and European companies to invest in the economy 'early before all seats are taken.'
'By diversifying the economy, we create more jobs, reduce poverty and develop the economy,' says Ghana's Ambassador to Germany, Paul King Aryene. For him oil or gas are not trendy enough to champion development and create employment, he emphasizes on the empowerment of the secondary sector and he is confident that the African Diaspora is that instrument of diversification.
