4. We, the Ghana Charismatic Bishop’s Conference pray for a basic connection between our biggest cities and regional capitals with safe highways of at least three lanes on either side.

Oh God, please make Ghana a nation of beautiful safe intercity highways. May serious road traffic accidents that kill thousands of people every year become a thing of the past.

Oh God, may we attract the Ghanaians abroad to help and contribute to our nation without driving them away.  Ghana earns more from inflows from Ghanaians abroad than from both cocoa and oil combined. May dual citizens and all other Ghanaians abroad be encouraged eager and happy to come back home, either to visit or to stay.

Oh God, Ghana’s inflow from remittances is higher compared to cocoa, oil and even gold. The nation generated $28.6 billion from remittances over a 10-year period as compared to $18.7 billion from cocoa and $7.6 billion from gold. (Source: statista.com)
