Eric Opoku revealed that the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) is demanding Ghana return some 27,000 tons of food supplies borrowed under the erstwhile Akufo-Addo Bawumia government in 2018.

According to Eric Opoku, he has asked the ECOWAS to grant Ghana a one-year period to raise the credited food items for repayment.

Speaking during the launch of the government’s Feed Ghana Programme on Saturday, April 12, 2025, at Techiman, Eric Opoku stated, “Recently, leaders from ECOWAS came to our office. They said Ghana owes them rice and maize of about 27,000 tons, which we borrowed in 2018, and that they are asking that we refund it”.

“Mr. President, I have, in your name, pleaded that once we commence the Feed Ghana initiative, we will come and repay the loan in one year,” he added.

Meanwhile, President John Dramani Mahama has declared that his government’s Feed Ghana Programme is not just a government policy but rather it is a call to action.

According to John Mahama, the newly launched Feed Ghana Programme is a national call to action.

He noted that the programme is not just a mere government policy but a comprehensive strategy to drive national growth and improve the livelihoods of citizens through sustainable agriculture.

John Mahama also revealed that the programme will be grounded in research, tailored to our climate realities, and inclusive of youth and women participation.

Speaking at the official launch of the programme in Techiman on Saturday, April 12, President Mahama stated, “All interventions will be grounded in research, tailored to our climate realities, and inclusive of youth and women participation”.

“Nana Chairman, Nananom, in conclusion, the Feed Ghana Programme is not just a policy. It is a call to action. The task ahead is monumental, but it is achievable,” Mr. Mahama declared.

He added, “With unity of purpose and shared commitment, we can transform agriculture into an engine of national growth and shared prosperity”.

The Feed Ghana Programme is a flagship initiative by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government which is aimed at revolutionizing agriculture, boosting food security, and supporting Ghana’s economic transformation.
