The Ghana Statistical Service is projecting Ghana’s population which currently stands at 33 million will reach 52.47 million by 2050.
Ghana’s projected total population in 2024 is 33,007,618, which is 1.07 times that of 2021 (30,832,019). On average, 711,706 additional persons will be added each year between 2021 and 2030.
This is contained in the Population Projection for 2021 -2050 released by the Ghana Statistical Service in Accra on Tuesday (2 July).
According to the Ghana Statistical Service, Greater Accra and Ashanti Regions are each projected to grow beyond 7.5 million people by 2050.
Three regions namely Northern, North East and Savannah experienced the highest growth and their respective populations are expected to double by 2050.
Government statistician, Professor Samuel Kobina Annim says the latest projections emphasise the need for renewed conversations around the age of retirement.
