President John Dramani Mahama addressed investors at the ceremonial sod‑cutting of the $1.3 billion Sentuo Airport Garden City Project in Accra, urging them to fully comply with Ghana’s laws and uphold high standards.
He emphasized that while the government remains committed to fostering a stable, enabling environment for business, investors must reciprocate by ensuring their projects contribute meaningfully to the country’s development.
Mahama stressed that the success of major investments should be measured not only by the size of the facilities but also by the economic opportunities they create for Ghanaians.
"Government is ready to work with investors who make long‑term commitments to Ghana. We will continue to strengthen the business environment and support investments that contribute meaningfully to our country’s development," he said.
In return, he added, investors are expected to fully comply with laws, uphold the highest standards, and create genuine opportunities for Ghanaian businesses and workers.
He urged that local businesses, engineers, architects, artisans, technicians and suppliers be given meaningful opportunities to participate in major developments, while young people should benefit from apprenticeships, practical training and skills transfer.
