Leader of the The New Force, Nana Kwame Bediako, has outlined his vision for all 16 regions of Ghana.
The aspiring president said, with the exception of Accra, all the remaining regions have not been maximised to their full potential.
Mr Bediako, popularly known as Cheddar, speaking his launch of the 12 pillars to transform Ghana promised to industrialize all the regions and tap into the potentials.
He stated that he has outlined these 12 pillars through an extensive research.
He said his team identified the vast mineral and agricultural wealth in these regions and was prepared to tap I to them for the benefit of Ghanaians.
“It’s supposed to bring back the 15 dormant regions that we have left for so long, and we haven’t done anything,” he stated.
“Tonight, I would like to unveil all the potential minerals, arable lands, and all that we have discovered through the research within the 15 regions to Ghanaians. We start by making sure we invest in all these 16 regions, that is industrial plants to be able to refine all our minerals, and then the processing plants, to be able to process all our agro plants,” Cheddar explained.
He revealed that the research conducted identified Ghana’s potential mineral resources—including gold, iron ore, gas, bauxite, lithium, and diamonds—along with its agricultural lands, amount to an estimated $2.5 trillion.
To him, if we are able to tap into these resources, the country could achieve an economic output of $4.7 trillion within the next decade.
The initiative he added will help create more than 8 million jobs.
“We will also create 8 million jobs in a decade,” he promised, outlining a vision of widespread economic development and job creation across the country.
