It is an African statement,\u201d the President noted.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He disclosed that young Ghanaian engineers had entirely developed the artificial intelligence system that optimizes port operations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWe are not just users of technology; we are creators,\u201d he emphasized.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">According to him, advanced automation systems would be installed by early 2027, with the ambitious goal of making Tema Port Africa\u2019s fastest turnaround terminal.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The President describes the project as triggering \u201ca ripple effect of enterprise and innovation,\u201d driving economic diversification and youth empowerment, and calls for sustained investment in automation, digitalization, and green port technologies to keep Ghana competitive in global trade.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He reaffirmed the government\u2019s commitment to policy stability and investor confidence, ensuring Ghana remains an attractive destination for high-impact private capital.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The upgraded Tema Port now operates as the preferred first-call terminal for mega-container vessels entering the Gulf of Guinea.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mother ships will offload cargo in Ghana, which is then redistributed via feeder vessels to ports across West Africa, including Monrovia (Liberia), Freetown (Sierra Leone), Dakar (Senegal), and Douala (Cameroon).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The facility also solidifies Ghana\u2019s role as the primary transit hub for landlocked neighbours Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger, enhancing intra-African trade under the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), whose secretariat is based in Accra.<\/p>\n<p>Source : Ministry of Transport<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President John Dramani Mahama has officially commissioned the $1.5
