President
\nAkufo-Addo encouraged Yandex and Yango to develop their presence in Ghana,

\nplayers to improve, and everyone wins in the end. While users get cheaper rides
\nand better service, drivers can earn better money, while the country gets the
\nlatest high-level technologies,\u201d Mr. Sahakian noted.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
