The Eastern Regional Youth Organiser of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has taken a swipe at the current New Patriotic Party (NPP) administration claiming that whilst they failed in initiating the Special Initiative (PSIs) project, the NDC successfully revived the Komenda Sugar factory to grow the economy.
Mr. Hackman Kabore however admitted that the only challenge the NDC faced in reviving the Komenda Sugar factory was the lack of funds to purchase raw materials to feed the factory.
Speaking on ATV’s Asem Yi Di Ka show, Mr. Kabore explained that the former NDC administration sent a proposal to Parliament detailing reasons they would need $25million to invest into the factory.
Although the appeal failed to materialize, it showed the extent to which the NDC government cared about the economy he said.
He however poured scorn on the NPP for not effectively managing the President’s Special Initiative (PSIs) which Alan John Kwadwo Kyeremanten presided over as Trade and Industry Minister under the erstwhile Kufuor administration.
In an another development, the Central Regional Minister, Kwamena Duncan has expressed disappointment in the previous NDC government's failure to raise the much-needed capital to resuscitate the Komenda Sugar Factory.
According to him, contrary to reports that the Komenda Sugar Factory was in production; “there’s no start-up capital as well as raw materials for the production of sugar”, hence the inability of the factory to produce sugar on a large scale.

lies,lies...... even in opposition. So the Komenda sugar factory is working now abi? Ghanaians eyes are wide opened and will this time will not take your propaganda. Less than two months in opposition you do not have anything to say than confusing your members.
In fact I now believe the saying that when the gods want to kill you they make you mad first. How can a party rejected overwhelmingly by the people that with all what you touted about boasting of doing they still didn't like you and these ndc ***barred word*** lot are still on their old propaganda which annoyed the people to vote massively to send them away. Didn't the Central region know of the Komenda Sugar factory before they voted you out leaving you with only 5 seats? So what are you talking about? I can see for sure ndc is at the verge of collapse,they still made and talking about their old propaganda which didn't work for them and have sent them to opposition how is that going to work for you in opposition? Ndc will never come back to power can't you get it? If the people liked you they would have voted for you
These guys will be in Opposition for a very long time. They should bring some of the sugar for purchase. He should also know that PSI projects are functional, but the Komenda sugar is 'sick'
