Paypal is country specific so you have to open a paypal account in the country you reside in and add an address / phone number / bank accounts / cards from within that country.

You can't change countries on a paypal account, you would have to close the one you have and open one in the correct country. 

HOWEVER I don't think paypal is available OR supported in Ghana.
