Tomato processing factory coming, Bawumia assures Offinso North

Vice President and NPP flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has promised the establishment of a tomato processing factory to boost the local economy of the Offinso North Constituency.

Addressing a charged crowd in the capital Akomadan, a town historically known for its abundant and high-quality tomato production, Dr. Bawumia recognized the challenges farmers face, particularly the lack of market access and post-harvest losses.

Akomadan’s tomato industry, once a thriving agricultural hub supplying tomatoes across the country and beyond, has suffered due to limited processing and storage facilities.

To address these issues, Dr. Bawumia assured residents that his government would set up a tomato processing factory in the area if he is elected President.

“We will continue the good works we have been doing in the cocoa sector. The DRIP project is ongoing in the various districts where roads are being constructed. I will also introduce the District Agriculture Mechanization Center where I will distribute farming implements in the districts including”, Bawumia noted.

“For Offinso North I want to assure you that I will establish a tomato factory to support the local economy”, he announced.

He appealed to the electorate to vote for him to become the next president of Ghana and all the NPP parliamentary candidates across the country to enable them to continue the transformative agenda of the government.

Tuesday’s rally marks the second day of Dr Bawumia’s ‘Bold Solution’ campaign tour of the Ashanti Region.

Having already toured 15 out of Ghana’s 16 regions and campaigned in over 220 constituencies, Dr. Bawumia saved the Ashanti Region—an NPP stronghold—for his final constituency-focused campaign stop. Many enthusiastic supporters had eagerly awaited the arrival of their prospective leader.

Joined by party figures like Ashanti Regional Chairman Bernard Antwi Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi, Dr. Kofi Konadu Apraku, Kwabena Nsafoa, and both former and current MPs, Dr. Bawumia kicked off his Ashanti tour in Ntobroso, Atwima Mponua Constituency Monday (4 November).
