The founder of All People’s Congress (APC), Hassan Ayariga says when he is voted as President of Ghana he will institute what he describes as an economic lockdown for one year.
Speaking on Starr Chat with Bola Ray on Thursday, Mr. Ayariga stated that within one year of the economic lockdown, Ghana will become a production hub.
“Because after planning you’ll realize that we don’t produce, we import over 1.2 billion of rice every year when we can do rice farming. We import over seven billion dollars of oil when we can use groundnut to make oil, palm oil, soya bean, and a whole lot of things that we can use.
“We don’t do anything we import everything, so this lockdown will begin to give us the opportunity to extract and do our things and become a production hub,” Mr. Ayariga stated.
According to him, he will make the nation a production hub within four of his administration since a four-year-old child is able to talk and other things.
“Do you have a four-year-old child, is he not talking, and in school? So I am going to lock Ghana down for one year. No importation,” the APC founder stated.
