Francis Asenso-Boakye receiving a gift from \u00d6mer Bolat<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Minister for Roads and Highways, Francis Asenso-Boakye, has called on Turkish investors to prioritise Ghana as their top investment destination.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the 11th<\/sup> World Cooperation Industries (WCI) Forum under the theme, \u201cInvest in Africa, Invest in the Future,\u201d he highlighted Ghana\u2019s immense potential for growth and strategic partnerships, with a particular focus on Ghana\u2019s thriving infrastructure sector.<\/p>\n

Mr. Asenso-Boakye emphasised the critical role of infrastructure, especially roads and highways, as the foundation for economic development.<\/p>\n

He specifically spotlighted the 957km Abidjan-Lagos Corridor Project, which spans five West African countries\u2014C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire, Ghana, Togo, Benin, and Nigeria.<\/p>\n

With over 50% of the highway passing through Ghana, he indicated that the project offers vast opportunities for investments in manufacturing, tourism, technology and logistics.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Abidjan-Lagos Highway is more than just a road\u2014it\u2019s a catalyst for economic growth across the ECOWAS region.<\/p>\n

I therefore strongly urge Turkish investors to seize the opportunity to participate in this transformative project, which promises significant returns and enhances regional integration,\u201d Asenso-Boakye stated.<\/p>\n

He also championed Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) as a key avenue for investment, citing Ghana\u2019s pioneering PPP in the expansion of the Accra-Tema Motorway as an example of the country\u2019s commitment to infrastructure modernisation.<\/p>\n

Asenso-Boakye encouraged investors to explore smart road technologies and green infrastructure, underscoring Ghana\u2019s focus on sustainable development.<\/p>\n

During his visit, Mr. Asenso-Boakye also participated in the International Road Federation (IRF) World Congress 2024 in Istanbul, where he addressed a high-level ministerial meeting on behalf of the government and people of Ghana.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s congress, themed \u201cConnecting to Empower Mobility: Roads as Enablers of a Sustainable Future,\u201d facilitated productive discussions on overcoming challenges and exploring innovative solutions in the roads and transportation sectors.<\/p>\n

In his address, Asenso-Boakye underscored Ghana\u2019s significant progress in road infrastructure development, which has improved connectivity, reduced travel times, and enhanced access to essential services.<\/p>\n

These advancements, he noted, have been pivotal in reducing poverty, raising incomes, and expanding access to healthcare and education.<\/p>\n

On the sidelines of the IRF World Congress and the WCI Forum, Asenso-Boakye held bilateral discussions with T\u00fcrkiye\u2019s Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, Abdulkadir Uralo\u011flu, and Minister for Trade, \u00d6mer Bolat.<\/p>\n

Their talks focused on promoting trade and economic cooperation, particularly in the construction sector, and positioning Ghana as the gateway to Africa.<\/p>\n
