We need a special programme to be able to put manufacturing back [on the path of positive growth].”Dr Boeh-Occansey said the inefficiencies of the utility companies was an additional cost on the operation of productive enterprises and warned if something urgent was not done, “the manufacturing sector is going to vanish completely.”Source: Joy Business/Ghana
