I think my advice would be to go to Ghana on a tourist visa with your CV and then look around for a job. Obviously I am not advising you to work but I think that if you are on the ground so to speak you will have more chance of finding something yourself than applying from the UK.

thanks hkann, i will be going over there later on in the year but i am trying to find out if there are building companies over there to take my cv to first so i don't just end up travelling around blindly looking, at least if i could talk to a few first and make an appointment to see them when i get there it would be easier. so i need a few contacts over there first in order to do that. thanks for the reply

If you go on to ghanaweb.com and look at the yellow pages you will find a list of building companies so that might help you with your search.
