The World Bank President, Paul Wolfowitz on Friday said Ghana and Tanzania held the brightest chance to secure the showpiece of Africa in the not too distant future.
He said Ghana was among the world's best 10 improved countries and all the indicators pointed to an even brighter future for the country.
"There is a clear improvement in the economy but what we need is an even more dramatic improvement to make the country's success even more tangible," he added.
A release signed by Andrew Awuni, Press Secretary to the President and Presidential spokesman, said Mr Wolfowitz was speaking when he paid a country call on President Kufuor at the castle, Osu.
The World Bank president, who has been in the country to participate in the Golden Jubilee celebrations also visited the Nima market, Kumasi Central Market and a number of pineapple farms in the Central Region where he interacted with artisans, market women and some farmers.
President Kufuor thanked the World Bank President for his support to Ghana's developmental efforts.
