- Why Ghana is so rich?
Ghana is one of Africa’s rising stars, the country doesn’t fall far behind the big economic players on the continent like Nigeria, South Africa, and Morocco and it is the only African country whose entertainment industry is giving Nigeria a run for its money. Ghana is a beautiful West African state situated in the center of the Gold Coast of Africa, with a population of over 31 million people, and has a 535-km-long shoreline that includes breathtaking lagoons and lush mangrove forests.
The country’s tropical climate varies from a Sudanian-type climate in the north with a short rainy season to the high rainfall regime of the forested Guinean and Guinea-congolian Regions in the southwest.
Ghana has become one of the richest countries in Africa because of its numerous economic activities and its ability to attract foreign investors to come and invest heavily in the country. Ghana has thrived especially in sectors of Agriculture, Mines, and Tourism. In this video, we are going to take a deep dive into the different reasons why Ghana is so rich.

Ghanaians are learning how to hype their Country; unfortunately, in the process hype out a joke out of themselves, hahaha!
Ghana is rich😂😂😂😂😂Am gonna stop taking Africans serious no
So in that context,we can call any country rich
I'm a Ghanaian Africa is rich but our leaders are foolish 😂😂😂😂
I agree. It does not say Ghana is the richest. One of the richest does not mean richest.
Ghana is so rich but our leaders have not had the wisdom to harness it for the benefit of its people and that’s a shame.
Leaders is the problem
Sometimes if you see the structures in East Legon .... Wealth in the country is amassed by our leaders
@@roygarbutt829 the leaders come from the people . The problem is the system . We change leaders every fours but does nothing to the system which is the software the whole country is run on. It’s easy to say the problem is leaders but for me “our leaders are a true reflection of who we are as a people” until the voters clout for a serious change of the whole governance system it will take forever . Politicians won’t change cos the current system benefit them . It all starts with the voters(the people)
is it true? I heard that president of Ghana is one of the best in Africa, if not the best
@@bowser3017 lies
I have been to Ghana 🇬🇭, I lived and worked there. The majority of the people are NOT RICH. most resources leave Ghana and make others rich.
V Norm - So true. Sadly, so many people are pleased to point out how rich in natural resources Ghana is, even it benefits everyone else but them and other Africa. Make it make sense.
That goes for all African countries
@@charlesscott4722 - Absolutely.
Eritrea 🇪🇷 has freed itself from the West, and Mali 🇲🇱 and Ethiopia 🇪🇹 has just freed themselves also. InshaAllah this is a trend and more will do the same.
A big yes
Every African nation is rich. They just need good leadership.
Not true! When your population is just 2M you are not rich. Not when you are in a desert. The real rich countries have water and pasture in abundance like in Europe and America!
@@BoringDad1272 Bro what do u mean I don’t understand
@@akosuadiamond2731 We are mislead by this idea that minerals are riches of a country. Not true! To get to those minerals, you need technology. That technology can only come from education. Education requires investment on people and investment on infrastructures. In other words, you need a government with big resources to educate the children in science and tech and at the same time build big projects that will employ those educated.
However, when you have a small population, you can't gather enough fund to build big projects. When you can't feed your children because you have drought and poor soil, your main goal is not big projects but food safety.
Agriculture is really the gateway to progress. When people are fed, they can think and research. Europe and America have the most important natural resources: water, fertile soils and they are able spend their time on education.
For example, do you know why Ghana or Ivory Coast are richer than Mali or Senegal? Look at their Agriculture and population! And you know Mali has gold, uranium and many other minerals, but it is a barren land, underpopulated.
Even Nigeria's power is because of population size and Agriculture.
@@BoringDad1272 OMG u answered this so maturely unlike some people 😔 TY for clearing up what u said!!.😃
@@akosuadiamond2731 Indeed I should have elaborated more.
It’s about time we the youth of Ghana (Africa)raise up to hold our leaders to account .
Ghana just tal talk talk bla bla nothing more
Yes I believe Ghana 🇬🇭 is rich...... and in years to come we'll become the richest country in Africa
😂😂😂😂
It depends on our leaders.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sure ma brother 🫂
😂😂😂😂with NDC and NPP 😂😂😂😂
I love Ghana history, Ghana is seems like father of Africa based to its history
With hard work Ghana is on a path to becoming a great power economically and politically. All the dreams of Ghanaians can be achieved with better governments that put the natives and residents first in future which is what all of Africa should do to put Africans out of poverty. Well done Ghana.
Which hardwork? You can prosper from hardwork when politicians and relatives constantly loot the nation's wealth.
Put Africans first

Big up yourself Ghana. Love from Jamaica 🇯🇲 ❤.
Ghana is rich in mineral resources but "poorly" poor when it comes to leaderships! Our resources are feeding other continents but Africans are hungry, jobless, and deprived beyond measures...I pray one day LEADERSHIPS will turn to the RIGHT YOUTHS and no more the old men.
In America we are told ghana is the safest country in Africa with the best leadership and the least corruption and a thriving economy one of the fastest growing in the world is this not true
@@elvangulley3210 it’s a lie. For safety, we are the best. And no wars here.
@Elvan Gulley Democracy is killing us. We could have a great leader for only 8years term in office and then the next is a corrupt baboon like the current one we have now. Ghana is safe, YES but struggling a lot. The government has created a bureaucratic system of governance that makes it impossible for transparency and accountability.
@@elvangulley3210 That's 💯 % true. Those who are saying it's not true have not lived in other African countries. They only try to compare Ghana to European, American and other well developed Asian countries. Ghana started its latest development only about 22 years ago and the results are clear. The country has changed completely. If you look very carefully, the hardships on Ghanaians is self influenced, largely caused by the people themselves and not the government. A large number of people have moved into the main cities where there's no job opportunities for them instead of staying in the rural areas where farming, fishing, gold mining and other means of employment can easily be found. This has created a large number of unemployed workers and thus created an imbalance of the economy. Most of the people think the sales of the raw natural resources in the country should automatically bring money into their pockets without a job. A purely African way of thinking.
@@elvangulley3210 Within Africa, most of that is true, but that's not saying much when you look at the rest of Africa. On a global stage all of that means nothing. It's time for Ghana to stop being satisfied with mediocrity and actually be better.
Africa is Rich but our leaderships are very foolish 😂🇬🇭
No doubt about that 💯

God has really blessed Ghana 🇬🇭 …. and am soo proud to announce am a GHANAIAN..🇬🇭I really love my country, I was born in Ghana and grew up in abroad well to my knowledge Ghana has really come far , and woow really proud of my country… All love to our president Nana A addo. Best president ever… more vim ..
As relating to natural resources;historic sites; social and political stability with a few great exports of the most beautiful minds from Africa; Ghana is still far behind to realize it's full potentials as the eyes and heartbeat of Africa...I understand per capital income;GDP and production statistics we are still babes as much as many African countries rich in natural resources
I'm hearing it for the first time that Ghana is so rich 🤓
Same as me Hahaha.
That is the reason the area now called Ghana was once called the Gold Coast and it is the reason Ghana is the number one producer of Gold on the continent of Africa.

THANKS A LOT FOR YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS, FOR PROMOTING GHANA❤😊
Very detailed, thank you for the work you put in this video.
See how foolishly we turn this into a comparison of Ghana to Nigeria? Rich deposits of resources don't translate into a national wealth. Japan has no resources but they're RICH. NAIJA and GHANAFUOOLS na di same suffahead.
Thank you it's soo sad
I just came from the one he did about Kenya...and there were Tanzanians and Somali and Kenya butting heads. It seems for every video, there will be two or more countries at each others' throats 😂
Notice the people suffer while the elites get richer. Ghana isnt rich. the elites of Ghana are rich.
Thanks for promoting our country
Its interesting how you failed to mention their huge electronic pollution so they can sell copper from the wires. There are shantytowns filled with electronic waste dumpsites where they work
Great video❤️
I hope everyone gets rich
We are a growing economy so much opportunities are available to us to become a robust economy. We are rich as every Africa country in relation to resources
Resources but not leaders who make use of the resources.
which resource you mean the E-levy?
5:32 Colonized for 2000 years?
Aside from a few coastal Forts, occupation of the area that is today Ghana was essentially 60 years. (1896 - 1957)
Lol that's what I'm saying. Colonialism didn't last in most African countries for more than 60 years. A lot of people lived to see it start and decline.
Which Ghana is he talking about; the one where sick patients sleep on cardboard sheets, the one where road accidents are no news and civil servant payments are over six months in arrears? Good trial but propaganda will no provide hospital beds, nor will it fix the roads.
Are you serious you compare Ghana onto the us be proud even in the us there are people on the street sick and poor they have to pay for health insurance be happy ghanian don’t have to pay Ghana has the best healthcare sistem in west Africa have you gone outside? Please stop talking
@@estherkanga6684 - Where in his/her comment did she mention the United States? What are you talking about. I’m not even Ghanaian and I know that what he/she mentioned are issues in Ghana. In the U.S., in the case of emergency care/urgent care, you cannot be denied treatment because of you don’t have health insurance, which is available to poor people.
@@MrOu83 am just saying that he shouldn’t judge the president because there are some countries that are even worse than ghana
@@estherkanga6684 - He pointed out some of the realities of life in Ghana. If the president is responsible for correcting those issues and he has not done so, he, along with parliament and other leaders, is responsible for that. No president (prime minister) is beyond reproach.
Just because there are other countries that are worse off than Ghana does not mean Ghana should pat itself on the back, turn a blind eye and be satisfied with not being as bad as some other nations. That is a very low bar that no country should aspire to.
@@MrOu83 thank you for articulating my viewpoints loudly and clearly. Esther forgets that I have the right to express my views, which may not necessarily agree with hers.
Ghana love💘 Nigeria 🇳🇬please 🙏
Thank you, this was very informative. I knew of only two points within this video; however you enlightened me to other key areas and changes within the economic and community stance of Ghana and how they are progressing by filtering out to the local districts/chiefs for agricultural and other purposes.
Thanks for sharing.
Peace and Blissings
It is funny when Nigerians take pride in their huge but mostly poor populace, all that tells which of the two countries is better is the life expectancy rate. Ghanaians live longer than Nigerians period
Ghanaians always trying to hide the horrible state of their country. With all your claims of wealth, abeg fix your stadium let the super eagles flog your a$ses
The average Nigerian is doing far better than the average Ghanaian.🤷🏿♂️

Can I please have some of what you were smoking when you made this video......???
It may be rich but as with many other countries,this wealth does not seem to have benifited the very poor.I have made 6 visits and am about to make my seventh in June and I continue to be appalled by the poor conditions under which many of the people live.The boom in real estate has not changed their lives and many still lack basic amenities such as a toilet and running water.The presence of expensive mega churches in poor neighborhoods is also disturbing.and only seem to enrich the various pastors,apostles prophets and bishops.Marx was right.Religion is the opium of the people .Ilove Ghana and Ihope that it prospers.To be honest,I see similar problems in my native country Jamaica but that is a discussion for another time.
That is story of a lot of African countries continue to travel around Africa and you will find same story in most societies. We've long way to go
Thank you for this honest reply. As a born and bred Ghanaian, this video feels more like a pitch from our foreign ministry to foreign investors than an actual discussion of our wealth.
If you compare Ghana to other African countries ; including your own Jamaica Ghana is doing very well; the comparison is not with Western countries; it may come to a shock to you; but majority of Americans are poor who live pay check to paycheck.
Ghana is the best country in Africa by far!
This is wonderful..
Ghana is Rich period 🤩 u can cry about it 🤣 there are many poor people in Nigeria too
We are rich by nature long live mother Ghana forward ever backwards naver 🙏

Ghana is making Africa look good and I am proud of what's going on in that great country. I am proud of our senior brother President Nana Akufo-Addo for all he has been doing for this beacon of hope for Africa.
I think you're beating about the bush as to the initial firing rockets of the engine of Ghana's economy. It is " Flight Lieutenant Jerry Rawlings." This great man worked tirelessly on the extermination of corruption. I think it is being ungrateful not including him in the conversation of Ghana's successes. Then came great leaders that continued to ensure good government.
Thanks for the video.

Yet still Ghana poor small nation !! It’s unbelievable Ghana government need E-LAVY TAX FROM UNEMPLOYMENT CITIZENS !! After all abundance of resources!!
Sorry I am from Ghana and it’s not rich. What with 30% literates in the country? Don’t believe the hype. There are lot of people below the poverty line. A lot of people don’t have toilets in their homes and have to use a public latrine or worse go to the beach to ease themselves. How is Ghana a rich? Only a small percent experience the richness of the country. This you’re reporting here is not experienced by the people of Ghana. So if the majority of the people are poor how can the country be Rich? Very 😞 The West owns everything in Ghana and Africa as a whole. Sad, sad and more sad.

The United States is soo rich, i mean filty rich yet we have very poor people in the U.S as well,so ghana could be rich but if the fiscal,economic is not managed well th then it's people will not enjoy the riches.Yes Ghana is rich but do we see this in our society??no
Ghana was “Colonized over the last 2000 years”?
That’s quite an unforgivable blunder coming from a historian.
Ghanaian colonization was from 1831 (Southernmost area) / 1901 (all of Ghana) - 1957

Yes, Ghana is so rich that some school children lie on their bellies to read and write in schools because the government can not provide furnitures for the school. It is also so rich that it can't build make shift bridges and some students have to walk in a river to get to school and wear the wet uniforms in school the whole day. This is how rich Ghana is.

Ghana and rich currently do not belong in the same sentence. Have u seen the suffering?
Exatcly
This is HEAVY BS. Nothing personal. Please do better. Ghana is simply not rich. The citizens are extremely deprived.
Ghana was colonized but not for 2000 years like the computer voice said. Europeans starting with the Portuguese only began raiding the West African coast in 1451.
Ghana started in central region first capital city in Ghana is( Gold Coast) in central region,after independence they changed it to ghana meaning,God, has, appointed, Nkrumah, already
Oil and gas capital takoradi Western region,Ahanta land
If African make one Stte United state of Africa would be much richer.
Ghana is the gold coast and not situated in the middle of the gold coast. We had so much gold when it rains gold falls from the skies to be picked up, gold were found on the sea sand and rivers. We didn't have to dig deep for gold and that is the name gold coast
Ghana was not colonized for 2000 years. Colonization in Ghana started in the late 19th century. The bond of 1844 gave the British control only over states along the coast. Ashanti was defeated by the British Britis around 1889.

Well, a country is considered rich, when wealth is in the hands of the citizens and not foreigners. I dont think Ghana is rich because it wealths is in the hands of others, unlike Nigeria which is truely rich because bussinesses are in the hands of Nigerians
A country is rich when it is growing and is giving its citizens and the African diaspora of the Americas and in the rest of the world to make investments in its territory, unlike Nigeria which is now the poverty capital of the world, having taken over the title from India.
@@jakebaba2149 : A country is considered rich when her people are rich and control her wealth, whether you believe it or not, Ghana cannot be truly considered rich when her people are generally poor.
Of the 10 richest people in Ghana about 4 are of foreign origin including Mr Ernesto Tarricone who happen to be the richest.
Take a look at Nigeria, of the 20 wealthiest people in Nigeria all 20 are Nigerians (that's true wealth).
Aliko Dangote is Nigeria's wealthiest man and is worth over $15 billion while Ghana's wealthiest person (Mr Tarricone) is worth $1.3 billion, that oughtta tell you that Ghana is living in a fool's paradise.
I was waiting for the commentator to say a word about Ghana's foreign debt to GDP ratio.
Ghana has the highest debt ratio among all African countries. The debts are pilling higher and higher but the govt is not being honest about it to the people.
Whatever Ghana has Nigeria has a whole lot more.
Everyone including the World Bank (IBRD),The IMF, IFC, ADB, etc are deeply concerned about the debt of Ghana but the only people who're not fully aware of this are the people of Ghana who go on living as if the debts mean nothing.
How'd you even consider a country with $67 billion and a population of 31 million people rich? How?
When some people make such deceitful videos and ask a person with a "foreign" accent to read it for Ghanaians, because of the inherent inferiority complex of Ghanaians, it becomes a huge disgrace.
Please we Nigerians don't wanna laugh because we know what true wealth means and not RUclips wealth.
Spare us the slanted commentary.
Yet, Nigeria is officially the poverty capital of the world. The fact that there a few mega rich, Nigerians out of 210 million citizens does not make Nigeria a rich country. Tarricone is a naturalised Ghana citizen who came to Ghana at the age of 17, when his father relocated and settled in Ghana. Tarricone is a Ghanaian citizen, married to a Ghanaian woman with whom he has children.
@@jakebaba2149 Exactly Jake Nigeria is known as the *poverty capital of the world* and this idiot is lying about how Nigerians are so wealthy if Nigerians were so damn wealthy you wouldn't have so many ppl in that Nation that are in poverty smh He's so ignorant its very amusing.
