The President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, has reiterated the government’s commitment to make Ghana a self-sufficient country capable of producing its own products.
To this end, he said the government would continue with the agenda of rapid industrialisation, with the aim of transforming the structure of the Ghanaian economy from one dependent on production and export of raw materials to a value-added, industrialised economy.
He said under the “One, district- One, factory” (1D1F) initiative, 232 projects were at various stages of implementation.
“These include 76 operating as 1D1F companies, while 112, including five medium-size agro-processing factories, and 63 common user facilities are under construction,” he stated.
