“We must eat what we grow to motivate our farmers, and support the development of the local food industry. Indeed, Rebecca, my beautiful wife, our First Lady, insists that we eat local rice at home, and has made sure of it. I call on all Ghanaians to follow my example, and eat local rice.” These were the words of President Akufo-Addo at the 35th Farmers’ Day celebration, on Friday, 6th December, 2019, held at the Jubilee Park, Ho, in the Volta Region.
