Chinese President Xi Jinping has extended warm congratulations to John Dramani Mahama following his election as Ghana's next leader, calling the West African nation a 'strategic partner' and celebrating 63 years of diplomatic ties.
From Gold Coast to Golden Opportunities
Xi highlighted that Ghana was among the first sub-Saharan African countries to establish relations with China in 1960. The two nations have since collaborated on infrastructure, trade, and tech projects – like the viral #ChinaGhanaChocolateCollab that boosted cocoa exports last year.
\"Bridge Builders, Not Just Traders\"
The Chinese leader emphasized plans to deepen political trust and economic cooperation, stating: \"Our friendship isn't just about shared history – it's about creating shared futures.\" Analysts predict increased investment in Ghana's renewable energy sector, which grew 22% last quarter.
