We Support Foreign Businesses And Only Pretend To Support Our Local One’s, according to Prof. Gyampo.
A senior political science lecturer at the University of Ghana, Professor Ransford Gyampo, has disclosed that our inability to support our local industries as a nation is what has been retarding our progress.
According to Prof. Gyampo, supporting our local businesses will help reduce the huge burdens on the government in areas like the provision of job opportunities for our unemployed youths.
Citing Safari Valley Resort and Kantanka Automobiles as examples, Prof. Gyampo revealed that our country has been envious of the indigenous people who put up businesses to help contribute to national development.

In a Facebook post in the late hours of Sunday, June 12, 2022, sighted by this portal, he continued that we only pretend to support our local businesses but yet support the foreign ones that do not contribute to our national development as our locally owned ones may do. To him, that mindset is not helping at all.
“Safari Valley Resort & Kantanka epitomizes our National Envy for indigenes who set up initiatives that create employment and lessens governmental burdens! We support foreign businesses and only pretend to do same for local investors. Our mindset!” His post reads.
Following the success of Aqua Safari, owned by a Ghanaian businessman, Samuel Afari Dartey, again established The Safari Valley resort in Ghana’s Eastern Region, which is home to dozens of species of wildflowers and wildlife, including antelopes, zebras, and giraffes.
Kantanka Automobile Company Limited is a subsidiary of the Kantanka group of companies owned by Apostle Kwadwo Sarfo. It was established in 1998 and was registered as a limited liability company in 2004. The company is a vehicle manufacturer and assembly company that manufactures and assembles cars with higher added value, expands OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer), and creates a niche market with new types of vehicles that give value for money to medium and lower-income earners in Ghana.
These companies, and other Ghanaian private-owned companies, provide employment to the majority of Ghanaians and also pay taxes to the nation for its development.
