The Turkish government has said it plans to invest over $100 million in Ghana’s health and agricultural sectors.<\/p>\n

This decision is due to the abundant investment opportunities in the country.<\/p>\n

A delegation of Turkish businessmen is currently in Ghana to explore viable business opportunities, particularly in the health and agricultural sectors. <\/p>\n

As reported by 3news.com, the delegation will visit various health facilities and farming communities to conduct preliminary assessments and gather first-hand information on potential investment projects that could support the government’s development agenda.<\/p>\n

Upon arrival in Accra, Zerrin Gelik, a member of the delegation, expressed the team’s intention, with the support of the Turkish government, to invest over $100 million in both sectors. <\/p>\n

Gelik, who is also a gynaecologist, highlighted plans to provide health education alongside the construction of hospitals in various parts of the country.<\/p>\n

Gelik noted that Ghana remains an attractive investment destination in the sub-region, with significant business potential in health and agriculture, which prompted the delegation’s visit.<\/p>\n

George Nti Bonsu, the business initiator for the projects in Ghana, stated that this long-term project aims to create job opportunities, particularly in healthcare services.<\/p>\n

The investment will also focus on developing the agricultural sector, leveraging the availability of arable lands across the country. <\/p>\n

Bonsu mentioned the Turkish partners’ readiness to engage in mechanised agriculture to produce food crops that are not heavily dependent on rainfall.<\/p>\n

The initiative is expected to provide substantial support to Ghana’s development agenda, enhancing both the health and agricultural sectors.<\/p>\n
