During the visit, Mr. Mohammed Ibrahim Awal\u00a0and Dr. Sam Kiruthu, Cellulant\u2019s Chairman spoke of importance of private-sector led economic growth, and the role government has in supporting initiatives that foster this growth.<\/p>\n

A good example\u00a0discussed is Cellulant\u2019s eWallet technology that to-date has impacted more than 15 Million farmers in Nigeria and Liberia.<\/p>\n

The eWallet solution, known as the \u201cAgriKore platform\u201d in an enterprise platform that provides both Governments and Non-Government institutions such as Ghana and Kenya a solution that provides them with a transparent way to empower farmers with financial services that are relevant to their everyday lives.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur commitment to foster these two economies goes beyond financial investment to talent. Where talents from both countries get opportunities to work in both markets and promote growth of both economies,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Themed,\u00a0\u201cBreaking New Frontiers in Intra- Africa Trade<\/strong>,\u201d the Kenya Trade Expo Ghana will be held in Accra in November, involving a three-day workshop, keynote addresses, B2B meetings and a business tour.<\/p>\n
