加纳总统启动希望之城建设计划

Ghana's President John Mahama has launched a project to build a $10bn IT hub near the capital, Accra, within three years.

加纳总统约翰·马哈马宣布启动一项价值100亿美元的工程，该工程将于三年内在首都阿克拉附近建设一座IT中心。 An IT university will be built at Hope City

Dubbed Hope City, it will have Africa's tallest building, at a height of 270m, an investor says.

It will be built on empty land and will employ about 50,000 people and house 25, 000 people, the investor adds.

In January, Kenya unveiled plans to build an "Africa's Silicon Savannah" within 20 years at a cost of $14.5bn.

Kenya's Konza Technology City, about 60km from the capital, Nairobi, is supposed to create more than 200,000 jobs by 2030.

Mr Mahama said the private sector would spearhead（带头，做先锋） the building of Hope City.

"Government has led growth since independence with all the major investments... The time has come for the private sector to take over," he said at the project's launch.

"We can see that already in several sectors, including ICT [information, communications and technology] and telecom."

The head of local technology giant RLG Communications, Roland Agambire, told the BBC that his company was investing in Hope City with the aim of making Ghana globally competitive.
