Former President John Dramani Mahama has committed to the residents of Jomoro in the Western Region, vowing that a future National Democratic Congress (NDC)-led government will establish a petrochemical industry in their locality to stimulate economic growth.
This promise is part of a broader strategy to enhance the oil and gas sector, as outlined by Mahama during his address to the chiefs and people of Jaway-Wharf in the Jomoro Municipality.
The former president, who is the Flagbearer of the NDC for the upcoming 2024 general election, shared this vision as part of his "Building Ghana Tour."
In addition to the petrochemical industry, Mahama hinted at plans to construct a state-of-the-art market in Jaway-Wharf, aiming to invigorate trade and rekindle commercial activities in the historically bustling town.
Moreover, he provided assurances to the chiefs and residents of an asphaltic road overlay, a move designed to modernize the area and facilitate trade.
Mr. Mahama's two-day visit to the region includes addressing a town hall meeting at Ambainu in the Ellembelle District and engaging with students at the Esiama Nursing Training School. The former president is slated to cap off his visit with another town-hall meeting with the chiefs and people of Evaloe-Adjomoro Gwira Constituency at Axim.

This Mahama guy is confused..,......
Hmmmnnn, with all these self inflicted debts hanging on the neck of Ghanaians, where will you get money to do all these apart from going for loans to add to the burdens of the people. Can any government ever use GOG funds to undertake an asphalt road. Mahama, which asphalt road in Ghana did you construct with GOG funding during your term as president? As for the petro-chemical industry, it will end up being the twin brother of the Komenda sugar factory. In the event you win power, you will go to cut sod for this project to start 3 months to election and when a new government takes over and abandons the project because there was no dedicated funding source for the project, you will say you left the funds behind when you were leaving office. Ghanaians now know the P1 tricks you so called politicians have been using to swindle the people. This time round any government that is leaving office should publish all uncompleted projects they initiated, which account the money for the project can be located, which bank, account number, amount in the account as at 7 January i.e. The handing over date.
