Young, Guru,

Please read the article below the refer to the link here http://useconomy.about.c...f/GDP_Growth_Rate.html.

There is no contradiction but the statistician chose language than can easily throw journalists such as Washington Akumu, Muna Wahome and James Makau off guard.



ACCRA (Reuters) - Ghana's economy contracted 5.1 percent in the first quarter of this year, after growing 5.5 percent in the previous quarter, the country's statistics office said on Wednesday.

Government Statistician Grace Bediako said GDP expanded 23 percent from a year earlier, however.

Bediako said negative growth in the first quarter was mostly due to agriculture, which she said shrank by 35.7 percent due to seasonal patterns.

"Primarily because of the negative growth in agriculture, we have an overall negative GDP growth in the first quarter," Bediako added, saying GDP was 6.7 billion cedis in Q1 2011 compared to 7 billion cedis in the previous quarter.
