This is the main reason why Jet-Li and Jack-Ma came to Ghana

It looks like the year 2019 is the year for all types of visit from International stars and business executives in Ghana.

Two other popular figures who have joined the bevy of stars who are visiting Ghana this year are Chinese film actor and martial artist, Jet Li and Ali Baba founder, Jack Ma.

It is reported that the two Chinese men were in Ghana for the “Africa Netpreneur Prize” which was held at the Accra International Conference Centre on Saturday.

The duo and their entourage paid a courtesy call on the presidency on Friday and were later spotted at the Luxurious Kempinski Gold Coast City Hotel.

In a speech at the conference which aims to support 10 African entrepreneurs with a $1 million grant annually, Jack Ma who is the founder of the program said his visit to the close to 30 million population of Ghana was his most important visit yet.

“This is my fourth trip to Africa and this is the most important trip for me because I have realized that through this trip, I can really do something real for Africa, African entrepreneurs and African young people…” he explained.
