CC: Return to Ghana's oil city 9 May 2013




Crossing Continents show

Summary: Ghana’s first commercial oil began flowing two and a half years ago. Shortly after the taps were turned on, Rob Walker visited the hub for the new offshore industry: the once sleepy port of Takoradi. He found a mixture of ambition and uncertainty in a rapidly expanding boomtown. Rob now returns to Takoradi to catch up with those he met last time and find out whether their dreams have been realised. Producer: Katharine Hodgson.
