I was amazed when I got there for my interview. I have never see a company as well planned and organised like Sentuo oil refinery. Everything is on point
It's all good 👍🏿😊 We need Ghana Dangote 😅 But, l like the speech by the investor. He loves Ghana and he has good intentions to invest in Ghana. God bless him and all of us.
Masa comot for der do you know him, ihave work for him before at his centuo ceramic and guys works his steel company too, do you de plans he has Ghana. Always saying things like yu know it all
All the profits will be exported. Encourage more Ghanaian investors so that the money stays in Ghana to boost our currency and economy. Reboot the Tema oil refinery and make it work for Ghana 😊
Reboot? Is that what you say, I don't think our Ghanaian politicians and leaders are going to reboot anything especially after they have already got their personal cuts till grave. The happy faces tells you it's not a national cake, it's personal gains.
You are stack in an old thinking that , govt alone should be responsible for creating job opportunities across. Remember, the people appointed and recruited to work Team Oil Refinery are all Ghanaians. The question is why govt own enterprises across the country are inefficient and and corrupted? This is because, the old guards aren't ready, or unwilling to introduce freshness into the operations. The Board of Directors, the CEO of the Refinery, including the whole management team have bizarrely failed the nation for doing poorly to revive TOR. Our free market and liberalised economy is perfectly designed to allow private capital to operate freely in the country. The inflow of capital from overseas investors into the country are crucial and critical to alleviate the chronic unemployment problem amongst the youth across the country. Regardless of who investment in the country, Ghanafuo ought to change their attitude to work, whether it is govt work, or private employment. Ghanaians employees often don't show up to work, or being late to work, and expecting to be paid. really!
@@kojokwame5201it’s a win win situation..remember every businessman run business for a profit and not for loss..I guess if the price of fuel comes down because of this refinery, u won’t be happy right, everything some of u Will complain..this is a good news for the country..I don’t care who owns it, this is called direct foreign investment and besides they partnered with some Ghanaians, as long as it will help the fuel price to come down, that’s what matters..Ghanaians cannot own everything in Ghana..u guys talk too much..TOR has been there for years, yet it’s not being run effectively, so because of TOR, we shouldn’t have private owned refinery..some of u need help seriously..
I don't understand how we think in ghana at all, It's not for Ghana but private Ghanaian, how can this be? A Ghanaian who has much money to do this and the whole country upon taxes and resources at this time the country can't do anything for it self to benefit the people like Gaddafi did in Libya. The people managing the country should stop thinking selfishly.
That's how it's in every where across Europe. You build the nation with private companies. In Europe there's nothing like government work apart from police, soldiers. Everything is private and that's why you can't mess up with your work because your employer will sack you. It's only in Africa you people complain about government work. Government doesn't create jobs in Europe they only tax. Every government work has been destroyed by the Ghanaians. So what are we talking about?
The Chinese are more or less a saviour to our ailing economy. Weldone Mr President, at least, Ghanaians will maintain NPP for continuietyand break the #8
I sometimes listen to our so called leaders and I feel so bad being a Ghanaian. They are so senseless and aimless. Acting as if nothing is possible. All the monies you steal and hide in your foreign accounts can put up much better infrastructure and developmental projects than this. Remember this is an individual investment not state own.....
It’s a shame to not let that of the state work but a private man has been able to build one just close to that of the state and the minister is happy. 😢
Sad country. I was waiting to see Kennedy put up such stuff. If foreigners invest, it boosts the economy some way but it would have been a serious boost if it were owned by a citizen of Ghana
@@DirtyEdon What difference does it make, if the owner of the business is Ghanaian? The govt policy of one district one factory is readily available to every Ghanaian who is willing and has the ability to set up a business in the country can apply for Govt financial assistance. Foreign Direct Investment destine to Ghana are also giving special investment packages to enable them to set up businesses in country, so that chunk youth employment in the country can be contained. Unemployment is a big problem in the country and govt is trying hard to lure domestic investors to come on board as well the foreign investors.
Criminals, who owns it? Whiles Ghana's economy is going down, they become richer for the next century. How I wish the political system to change for a more transparent and decentralized power just like the UK. We introduce a prime minister system in place of the Prez and limit their power, and possibly change them if they are not delivering what we want , without waiting for general elections which they will always rig. We need a more socialist system
Well wake up ghanians a foreigner has invested billions employs hundreds of people pays taxes etc... he ll definetley repatriate the money , he also has taken loans to invest in ghana , what investment has any ghanian done to employ thousands ?none it s always foreign investors and yet ghanians always complain . Pls let a ghanian also do some . What happened to tor 😅😅😅😅
That Refinery is not owned by either the State of Ghana or a Ghanaian. Its owned by foreigners, unlike in Nigeria where a single individual Nigerian owns Refineries bigger than this. Those foreign companies repatriate profits even though they pay takes to the Sates in which they operate, l would rather see a Ghanaian build and own that Refinery. Ghanaians should learn to own major "means" of productions as its increasingly happening in Nigeria. A Ghana or consortium of Ghanaians top business people should have embark on that projects.
As of this moment it's 700 naija per liter of fuel in Nigeria. The locals which is the very poor majority, dont benefit from Dangote owned oil refinery. Most household there have no power. Four hours of power average per day to those who get it. Proud of Ghana's progress for their people.
@@oluakinwale4859 nothing shocking. It is clear that Nigerian owned does the same as foreign owned businesses. There is no Ghana Dangote as yet but the power supply to household is way better than naija by a long stretch

@@jakebaba2149Stop deceiving the public. You've killed the publicly owned by promoting private ones; this is called de-industrialization.

Why do you have to call Jerry's name in everything negative, focus on those destroying Ghana with all the power they have. It is the political system and the constitution you have to criticise and aim for an inclusive Government system with a socialist mindset, that prioritize all Ghanaian citizens then we will all be happy.

This is what is called investment
If the investor is Ghanaian great
And if the investor is a foreigner, it is also great
We need like minded Ghanaians to put a consortium together and develop a serious and aggressive business concepts in areas of Manufacturing, Agriculture and Real Estate in Tourism and many others.
I’m up for this conversation or group. We can connect on social media and create a group or some sort for this very purpose.
