Here are a few of the interesting statistics I found about Ghana from the UNICEF and World Bank Sites. With a life expectancy of 57 years and an average income of $450, life can be a challenge in Ghana. Additionally, although primary school education is fairly good getting to secondary school, much less college, is very difficult.
