Welcoming the deal, President Nana Akufo-Addo explained that the agreement was reached following a business meeting between officials from Ghana and a German business delegation.
He stressed that the key part of this agreement is that it will boost investment, trade corporation and will reduce the unemployment rate in the country.
“There are so many areas that our bilateral relationship has offered us, but the key part of it for me is the emphasis on investment and trade corporation,” Nana Addo said.
He said Ghana is determined “to deal with the matters confronting our country such as youth employment, the desire of our youth to seek greener pastures elsewhere by improving the management of our national economy.”
