Is Ghana over crowded?

Compared to other countries in Africa, Ghana is not overpopulated but has had a huge explosion in population since 1950 when there was about 5 million people to now where there is around 25 million.

Ghana is rich in resources and is one of the biggest gold producers in Africa and also produces oil. This wealth does not flow to the population where income can be as low as $2 a day.

This wealth has attracted many immigrants from neighboring countries and this has added to the big increase in numbers.
