"Ghana is one of the best governed and managed countries in Africa." (Jeffrey Sachs) 

The government of Ghana presented its $8bn strategy to meet the MDA (Millennium Development Goals) 

The donors rejected this and eventually the government of Ghana got $2 billion over five years.

"a very pleasant representative of the European Commission said to me... 'the strategy was fine but we couldn't come close to the $8 bn dollar request"  

(Jeffrey Sachs The End of Poverty)
