On Monday, November 7, 2022, Ghanaian politician and actor John Dumelo introduced his “Operation Feed Ourselves” programme.
He claims that the initiative’s major goal is to increase food production, particularly rice (from Ghana’s Guan district and the country’s northern regions), tomatoes, onions, and maize from other regions.
John Dumelo believed that after beginning the campaign, our imports of rice, tomatoes, and onions would be cut in half during the following six years.
He urged everyone to work together to make the effort successful.
,”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,” the actor posted on his Facebook page.
He added that, “It’s a great time to be a farmer. God bless you and God bless Ghana. #operationfeedourselves”
