{Promise} One village, one dam starts this year - Akufo-Addo

Government has announced that one of its flagship projects, the ‘One-Village, One-Dam,’ will fully start this year. President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, who made this known in Parliament while delivering the State of the Nation Address, said though the project is a simple, low-tech project, the dams would “make a big difference to all our lives and the livelihoods of our farmers.” “Already, many of the little dams that had been abandoned have been rehabilitated and brought back into use. A deliberate and specific intervention to help farmers is paying off. Our farmers can see that the government is putting resources to back up the usual words. The 50 percent subsidy on fertilizer and the increase in the provision of extension services are making a great difference to the performance of Ghanaian agriculture.”
