President John Dramani Mahama has given firm assurances that Gomoa Central will soon witness major infrastructure and industrial transformation, following his Christmas visit to the constituency.
Gomoa Central MP Kwame A Plus described the visit as more than a festive retreat, saying it came with “clear and reassuring commitments” from the President towards development.
“The President assured us that the Winneba–Swedru Road will be fixed, and that additional roads will be constructed across Gomoa Central to improve connectivity and unlock economic opportunities,” the MP stated.
According to him, the road projects are expected to ease movement between communities, support local businesses and stimulate trade within the Central Region.
A major highlight of the visit was President Mahama’s confirmation that he will personally attend the sod-cutting ceremony for the Gomoa Central Special Economic Zone, a flagship industrial project under the government’s 24-Hour Economy Programme.
“This industrial zone will operate round the clock, attract large-scale investments and create about 300,000 sustainable jobs within a few years,” Kwame A Plus said.
The MP explained that the Special Economic Zone is designed to position Gomoa Central as a key industrial hub, capable of driving manufacturing, exports and employment on a national scale.
In addition to the industrial project, President Mahama is also expected to commission the Ahmadiyya Poultry Project at Gomoa Pomadze, a modern, automated poultry and livestock facility.
“This is a project that will employ many people, increase local meat production and significantly reduce Ghana’s dependence on meat imports,” the MP noted.
He added that with its size and advanced technology, the facility has the potential to become one of the largest poultry farms in West Africa.
Kwame A Plus concluded that the commitments reaffirm the government’s vision of economic renewal.
“Ghana is rising, the Central Region is resetting, and Gomoa Central is opening up for business,” he declared.
