Ghana-Morocco relationship should be strengthened -Kufuor

President John Agyekum Kufuor on Thursday said the renewed relationship between Ghana and Morocco should be strengthened in practical terms for the mutual benefit of both countries.

"As we welcome you as brothers, let us make this relationship more practical and Ghana is prepared to discuss with you about fisheries, energy, tourism, culture, extiles, aviation and other sectors.".

President Kufuor said this when a 20- member business delegation comprising Chief Executives of Moroccan companies on a two-day visit to Ghana paid a courtesy call on him and Vice-President Alhaji Aliu Mahama at the State House in Accra.

The visit is a follow-up to a visit by President Kufuor some Ministers of State and private entrepreneurs to Morocco in May at the invitation of King Mohammed VI to explore avenues for mutual co-operation between the two countries.

The delegation later had a discussion with some Ministers of State at the Accra International Conference Centre to be followed by a special meeting with the private sector at the M-Plaza Hotel on Friday.

Mr Mourad Cherif, leader of the delegation said Morocco would ensure that the vision of the two countries becomes a reality.
