This agreement unlocks a substantial grant of 1.92 billion Japanese Yen (approximately US$13 million) aimed at stabilizing electricity supply in Tamale City.
The project underscores the robust bond of friendship between Ghana and Japan, with several other collaborative initiatives currently under discussion.
This development is the latest milestone in the longstanding relationship between the two nations, which has been marked by mutual cooperation and support.
Ghana and Japan have enjoyed diplomatic relations since March 1957, with Japan providing significant economic cooperation, including loans, grants, and technical assistance.
The two countries have also collaborated on various development projects, such as promoting health services, improving nutrition, and reducing maternal and infant mortality.
The grant for the Tamale City electricity supply project is a testament to Japan’s commitment to supporting Ghana’s development goals. As the two nations continue to foster their partnership, Ghanaians can expect to see further collaborations in areas such as education, healthcare, and infrastructure development.
