Popular Ghanaian actor now turned agriculture-entrepreneur; John Dumelo has stated emphatically that he will bring the Komenda sugar factory to life if given the mandate.
This reaction from Mr. Dumelo came after an article from JoyNews with the caption “Komenda Sugar Factory: A rusting investment” went viral.
Taking to social media, he wrote:
“I can revive the Komenda sugar factory if given the mandate. That factory will start producing sugar within 16 months (Considering planting and harvesting of sugarcane). The factory needs about 200,000 tons of sugarcane (pa) to operate at full capacity. We can do it!”
The old factory built in 1964 became defunct about 30 years ago as a result of technical difficulties and mismanagement. Resuming operations at the factory was a perfect opportunity to do things right, this time around.
