A member of the Committee on Trade, Industry and Tourism, Seidu Alhassan Alajor said before the end of the tenure of President John Dramani Mahama, the Komenda sugar factory must work.

According to him the factory is dear to the heart of the President same with the sector minister and his committee chair has talked about it that the factory must be running before the end of the four-year mandate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

“Do not forget this was a factory established by JM’s first term, something that he started; I do not think he would forget about it, something that we would progressively work on to revive the factory and give employment to the people”.

“We are not going to make noise like the NPP, we are not noise makers, we deliver on our promises; when we said we were going to form Goldbod we did it; we repealed E-Levy in just three months; we do not talk, we do it for the betterment of the country”.

Again, John Mahama’s administration would not let Komenda factory to rot leaving Ghanaian youth stranded and looking for job; we must fix it to ensure that we provide the needed employment for the people and reduce the importation of sugar in Ghana.

He assured that the operationalization of the sugar factory is something that would be done stating that the sector minister is keen on achieving that.
