The Chief of Jato in
the Suhum Municipality of the Eastern Region, Baffuor Teitey Adjewi Narh is
urging President Nana Akuffo Addo to remember to fulfill his campaign promise
he made in the run-up to the 2016 general elections of establishing a
distilling factory in the area when he is voted into power.
According to him, the
area which has never voted for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) since the Fourth
Republic decided to change their voting pattern and massively threw their
support behind the NPP because of the assurances given them by the then NPP
Flagbearer.
“President Akufo Addo
during his campaign visited this area and told us that his one-district one
factory programme will be implemented here in Jato by building a distillery for
us to help in our brewing of Akpeteshie. We were so excited about that hence we
voted massively for the NPP to get its first electoral victory in this area
since 1992. We believe in Nana honour his promise. This is a gentle reminder.”

Narh was hopeful that the building of the distillery will see the return of the
teeming youth of the area who have left in search of greener pastures elsewhere
due to the collapse of the distilling business.
He further appealed to
President Akufo Addo to ensure that the price of sugar and other materials used
in the distilling business is reduced to keep them in business.
