John Dumelo to Help Ghanaians Feed Themselves

Ghanaian actor John Dumelo, has lunched a new farming project (Operation Feed Ourselves).

This program is aimed at helping the local farmers and less privileged Ghanaians to be able to produce local foods such as rice, maize, tomatoes, onions among others for themselves and to promote agriculture in Ghana in order to reduce the importation of rice, onion,, tomatoes, maize and other food stuffs.

Speaking yesterday,he said: “I’m happy to launch the “Operation Feed Ourselves” initiative this morning. The main focus of this initiative is to produce more foodstuff especially rice( from the Guan district and Northern parts of Ghana), tomatoes, onions and maize from other parts of the country. Another important aspect is to urge Ghanaians to add value to what we produce and consume Made in Ghana products. Hopefully this initiative will reduce our rice,tomatoes,onions imports by 50% in the next 6 years. Lets us all join hands to make this work. It’s a great time to be a farmer. God bless you and God bless Ghana.”
