The Chief Executive Officer of the Asian African Consortium, Mrs. Adelaide Araba Agyepong, has called for an all hands-on-deck approach to make the President’s vision of boosting rice production in Ghana a reality.
She said the vision of ending rice importation in Ghana goes beyond the Jospong Group of Companies.
“I am happy to mention that anywhere we have been stake holders both in Ghana and Thai Land have shown great support and enthusiasm for this project evidencing that the vision of ending the rice importation in Ghana is beyond Jospong Group of Companies
Highlighting efforts her outfit has made since the inception of the rice project in 2022, she said “ a national rice office for the project has been set up in Accra and fully furnished. Three zonal offices in Koforidua, Kumasi, and Tamale, for the southern, middle, and northern belt respectively, will also be ready soon for the projects.
