President of Ghana, John Dramani Mahama, has indicated that Ghana has seen stunted growth in her development because of poor governance and policy choices.

He indicates that the country's prospects have stunted and has been left with serious challenges.

John Dramani Mahama, who was speaking on Ghana's Oil discovery and the prospects it had then to help propel the country's development, noted that it has not been the case. "18 years ago when we were celebrating our 50 years of Independence, we celebrated the discovery of offshore oil and gas.

It was a moment of optimism, promising a new era of economic transformation and attracting significant investment into Ghana's petroleum sector," he said.
