Nana Akufo-Addo, presidential candidate for Ghanas ruling party, has pledged to invest part of the West African countrys future oil income in agriculture, hoping to turn the pain caused by the global spike in fuel and food prices into profit.
Ghana, widely regarded as an example of successful economic and political reform in Africa, aims to start pumping 120.000 b/d of crude from an offshore field operated by the UKs Tullow Oil in 2010.
