President-elect John Dramani Mahama has identified agriculture and agribusiness as the main drivers of his yet-to-be-installed government.
He said investing in the sector has the potential to transform the economy and create the needed jobs.
During a courtesy call on him by the US Ambassador to Ghana, Virginia Palmer, in his office in Accra yesterday, the President-elect said he hopes to work with the US to derive the full benefits of the sector. "One of my passions now is agriculture and agribusiness and we look forward to see how we can share knowledge and see how we can boost agricultural growth and be food self-sufficient," he said.
Ghana, he said was aiming to foster deeper relations with the United States to lift the West African country from the economic doldrums it finds itself.
