Why Ghana's MSMEs must rethink human capital investment: Seven strategic benefits
Yet a sobering reality persists: more than 90% of these enterprises are micro-sized, the overall MSME failure rate stands at 50%, and only 20% of start-ups survive.
Dr. Francis-Xavier Kojo Sosu, the Member of Parliament for Madina, has cautioned that Ghana's international standing should not suffer due to the illicit activities of individuals aiming to unlawfully amass wealth. This statement comes after French customs authorities confiscated approximately 3.9 tonnes of cocaine, estimated at €225 million, from a container of plastic waste that arrived at the port of Dunkirk from Ghana.
As a member of Parliament's Foreign Affairs Committee, Dr. Sosu emphasized the necessity for an exhaustive examination of the shipment and urged relevant authorities to hold accountable anyone found to be at fault. He highlighted that Presidents John Dramani Mahama and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government have endeavored to establish Ghana as a respected global leader in diplomacy.
Dr. Sosu also praised Foreign Affairs Minister Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa for his endeavors to portray Ghana as a nation of integrity and a leader in democracy on the African continent.
According to Dr. Sosu, Ghana's reputation is a valuable national asset that must be safeguarded through transparency, accountability, and rigorous law enforcement. He stressed that the actions of a few individuals should not jeopardize the country's hard-earned standing in the international community.
