President John Dramani Mahama has announced plans to collaborate with the Ahmadiyya Muslim Mission Ghana to restore the Pomadze Poultry Farm near Winneba in the Central Region to its former glory.
Speaking at the 92nd National Convention of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Mission in Gomoa Pomadze, President Mahama emphasized the significance of reviving the once-thriving state-owned facility.
The poultry farm, a key contributor to Ghana’s economy, was closed in the 1980s due to non-performance and later sold to a private investor in 2002.
President Mahama highlighted the importance of leveraging the partnership to not only restore the farm but also position the Ahmadiyya Mission as a leading supplier of poultry in Ghana.
“I promised last year that if elected President, I would work with your Muslim mission to restore the Pomadze poultry farm back to its days of glory,” he stated.
“This farm will become an example, encouraging other faith-based organizations to engage in income-generating projects that benefit their missions and create jobs for their members,” he added.
He further disclosed ongoing steps to actualize the project in collaboration with the Ahmadiyya leadership, affirming his commitment to fostering initiatives that drive economic growth and community development.
