The National Coordinator of the One-District-One Factory policy has expressed shock at the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) for claiming ownership of the Ekumfi pineapple factory to be launched under the flagship one district one factory policy.
Mrs. Gifty Ohene-Konadu said they started the factory from scratch thus the NDC cannot claim credit for it.
“I’m shock at the NDC’s lies, we met a virgin land bought by the owner and together with government, the project was started from scratch,” she stated.
Her comment is in reaction to claims by former deputy Trade Minister, Murtala Mohammed accusing the Akufo-Addo government of stealing their projects.
According to him, the processes for the establishment of the factory started in 2013 while the NDC was in office.
Murtala Mohammed claims the idea and success of the factory is due to the work the NDC did while in office and urged the NPP to disclose the history of the factory to Ghanaians and credit the NDC for it.
Reacting to the issue on Adom FM’s morning show Dwaso Nsem Wednesday, Gifty Ohene-Konadu described Murtala Mohammed as a ‘palpable liar’.
She said the Ekumfi pineapple factory is a private initiative by a pineapple exporter who has decided to produce juice to compliment government efforts.
“I have all the documents and pictures of how the project started. It was a virgin land so I’m surprised the NDC is telling such lies,” she bemoaned.
Madam Ohene-Konadu said it is unfortunate the NDC is politicizing an initiative which will generate jobs for the people of Ekumfi.
This notwithstanding, she was confident the factory will be viable because there is raw materials and ready market.
“The pineapple farms are gingered to cultivate more because there is ready market and the juice when produced will be exported and sold locally,” she stressed.

When at all will God grant ndc a single sensibl person who will talk and act differently?
Oh! NDC these are the very things that sent you to opposition. Lies , filthy words insults, arrogance.I feel sorry for this Murtala guy. His acid mouth cost him his. Because of his arrogance his peopl from Nanton rejected him. This is humble advice to NDC. Pack all those acid mouth to the back seat. These are the names Solomon Nkansah, Samuel Ablakwa Okudjeto, Koku Ayidoho,Asiedu Nketia, Sam George,Murtala Mohammed,Kwakye etc. These the voices Ghanaians detest to hear. Anything coming from uch, even if sensible is treated as ***barred word***. They should imitate Fiifi Kwetey who has learnt a lot. After all we have good guys like Kwesi Botcway, Totobi.
I like how people are insulting left and right...meaning ghanians dont even know how to start a business. You think you can start a full fledge business in 6 months. madam give credit where credut is due..and to the ***barred word*** who ask how long will it take to set up a pinaple facttory, try starting one and you will know
I did not know NDC party had so much foooooooools and ediiiiots in it!!! As if they deliberately seek foooooooools and edddddddddddiots to join it. That party needs prayers paaaaaaa.
Why does the NDC continue to eddddiots speak for it in public? Is it a game they are a playing by themselves of what?
Yes its for him, infact he also own Accra sports stadium and the flagstaff house.
Madam coordinator, please use your precious time to plan the launch of the laudable 1D1F program instead of responding to the lies of NDC and its members. You dont need to tell us that they are lying. we already know them for who they are. Ghana will work again by the grace of God under HE. Nana Addo Dankwa Akuffo Addo.
This Mutala guy is he correct at all?
If indeed the NDC started the project in 2013, how long was it going to take them to build the pineapple processing plant when they left office in 2016? Activists of this bogus party are ***barred word***. The other day I heard on radio one of its communicators saying that NPP's flagship Free SHS programme was begun by the Mahama government; this is because what they said to challenge the policy did not deter President Akufo-Addo from making the policy a reality. Fellow Ghanaians, let's be very careful of these pack of liars for they have nothing over their sleeves to move the country forward. All is about 'create, loot and share,'
Anytime this f001 appears on a tv or radio programme he shows true NDC traits. He lies through his teeth, he talks as if he is on a debating club platform debating to score points.Have you noticed the way all the so-called NDC communicators use words like 'corrupt',incompetent',con artists to describe the NPP?Fellow Ghanaians let us all pray for the president so he will realise his aspirations for the country.It will be calamitous to allow this gang of th13ves, land-guards, okada riders and cattle herdsmen to run this country again.
