The facilitator for the program, Madam Juliana Gyamfuah Agyemang, explained the steps in producing these items in detail and supervised the process, as the participants took turns in having a hands-on experience.

The Head of Agriculture Department, Mr. Emmanuel Mensah stated that farmers can produce these products for sale and for domestic use to help reduce spending and subsequently enhance economic growth among them.

He therefore encouraged them to fully participate in the exercise.

He urged the participants to produce more of these products particularly liquid soap, in order to get enough to wash hands regularly, thereby fighting against diseases such as COVID-19, Cholera etc. and to make economic benefit from it.

The chief elder of the Sebedie thanked the team for choosing their community for such an important training. He assured them that they will put whatever they’ve learnt into practice to ensure that the labour of the team is not in vain.
