Guinea
Guinea has abundant natural resources including bauxite, gold, and diamonds. Hydroelectric power also looks promising for the country.
Bauxite and alumina are currently the only major exports of Guinea. Other industries include processing plants for beer, juices, soft drinks, and tobacco. Agriculture employs 80% of the nation’s labour force. Guinea’s farming potential is massive, and the government plans to make the country an agricultural powerhouse by 2025.
Security is an issue in Guinea; it has a high crime rate, which includes violent crime, and walking around at night should be avoided. The country is working on improving its healthcare system which is sadly inadequate, and facilities are expensive. There are a few international schools, including English and Francophone ones, in Conakry, the capital of Guinea.
The climate in Guinea is tropical, with a wet and dry season, and the country is one of the wettest in Africa. Although tourism is slow, Guinea has plenty of historical and natural attractions. There are stunning place of worship and beautiful nature parks and beaches, and residents will find a lot to do.
Highly skilled locals, Diaspora, and expatriates are needed for positions in Ghana across various sectors and seniority levels. To find the latest jobs in Guinea, go to our Africa Jobs portal and find the Guinea job board.
