Alan Kyerematen, the minister of trade and industry, has urged the populace to back the government’s efforts to bring the economy back to normal.
Last Friday, he made the call during the Gbi Traditional Area’s yearly Gbidukor Festival in the Volta Region.
As the administration intensified its measures to resuscitate the economy, Mr Kyerematen pleaded with the crowd to exercise patience.
He stressed that the government was very much in tune with the current hardships, adding “government is relentless in its efforts to turn things around so we can all enjoy the good times again.”
He praised Togbega Gabusu VII, the Fiagba of the Gbi Traditional Area, for the region’s recent cultural upheaval.
“While l congratulate Togbega, the regional minister, and other ministers of state and Members of Parliament of the region for their relentless efforts to bring development to the area, l assure you that government is very much in tune with the current hardships facing all of us, and is relentless in its efforts to turn things around so we can all enjoy the good times again,” he reiterated.
He urged the locals to embrace the government’s initiatives, especially the one district, one factory (1D1F) program, in order to swiftly resolve the crisis.
According to Mr Kyerematen, the 1D1F was created with the intention of utilizing local chances to generate long-term employment for all Ghanaians, particularly the youth in their home districts.
The festival held there, according to the Trade and Industry Minister, has fostered a long-lasting relationship between him and the locals.
“The recent love and affection from natives of the Volta Region is a confirmation of the known love affair between the two of us,” he indicated.
