Dr. Owusu Afriyie Akoto, the Minister in charge of the Ministry of Food and Agriculture has assured to the people of Fumbisi in the Upper East Region, that the promise of establishing an Agriculture College in Fumbisi which was made by President Akufo Addo during his past visit to the area, has not been abandoned or dead. Apexnewsgh.com report Dr. Afriye gave the assurance during his visit to the Upper East Region during a radio engagement at Ura Radio monitored by Apexnewsgh.com on Wednesday, December 7, 2022. He said: “I was there when the President made that promise of Agriculture collage in Fumbisi, that promise is not dead. We have to do the infrastructure in Fumbisi. Fumbisi has 8 hill valleys, the one Valley which is being developed hasn’t even been completed, never mind the other huge 7. The 7 if developed can supply of whole of West Africa with our rice requirement and am not joking. So, the priority is to come and build the infrastructure, clear the land, level the land for investors to come in and take over, and that we are doing through Savanna Accelerated Productivity Project and that has done 300 hectors last year in the area and trying to expand it to add another 5000 hectors in the next 2-3 years under the new SAPP which is a loan from the African Development Bank”. He said they want to build an infrastructure development for the production to take place”.
