Libya could soon join Nigeria to supply crude oil to Ghana.
A deal has been struck between the two leaders, President Atta Mills and Muammar al Qadafi of Libya on the sidelines of the 13th Ordinary Summit of the African Union in Libya, after the government expressed seriousness about the need for assistance to access crude oil on good terms.
The Vice-President, John Mahama, had earlier travelled to Libya on the same mission.
The Presidential Spokesman Mahama Ayariga told Joy News, government hoped Libya could help Ghana to meet her daily oil demand of about 65,000 barrels.
“Qadafi has indicated his commitment to assist (Ghana with oil). It is now the question of the technical team working through the details of the deal and then the two countries will seal it; afterwards we will see the fruits of the discussion.”
