Gov't will facilitate business for all investors

Alhaji Inusah Fuseini, the Minister for Lands and Natural Resources has emphasised that the competitive fiscal regime and investor friendly climate offered by Ghana is to ensure a win-win situation for both investors and government.

The Minister said government under its medium term development agenda, recognizes the pivotal role played by the private sector in the socio-economic transformation of the country and would continue to make efforts at all levels to deepen its partnership with the investor community.

Hon. Fuseini gave the assurance when a six-member delegation from Turkey-based Koza Mining Company, led by Zafer Kara, General Manager, paid a courtesy call on him. The company, which has a diverse investment portfolio, is currently on a three-day tour of the country to explore investment opportunities particularly in the media, mining and energy sector.

The team was accompanied by Alex Tumasi,Investment Promotion Officer, Marketing & Public Affairs Unit of the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre.

Hon. Fuseini hailed significant strides made in Ghana–Turkey bilateral relations in recent times which culminated in the exchange of visits between President John Mahama and Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdagan and the establishment of diplomatic missions in both countries.

“Ghana recognizes Turkey as a key development ally especially in view of its strategic location at the cross roads between Asia and Europe and so we welcome your interest in investing in Ghana as an important step towards cementing the thriving relations between our two countries,” he said.

Hon. Fuseini therefore assured the delegation that he would facilitate the company to ensure that it does not encounter any setbacks in the mining sector in Ghana
