The DCE noted that feasibility studies are being carried out in order to pave way for construction work to commence on the new cassava processing factory.

He hinted at the Assembly’s plans to collaborate with other districts to provide adequate raw material for the project since the mountainous nature of lands in the area may not provide adequate farmland to help feed the proposed factory with the needed raw material.

“We are excited our area has been earmarked to benefit from the food processing factory and the Assembly is collaborating with adjoining Districts to secure enough arable lands for cassava farming” Mr Seneadza said during a town hall meeting in the District.

Mr. Seneadza advised his people to take advantage of the project and gain employment to sustain themselves and families.
