The All Peoples Congress (APC) has waded into the recent ‘sugar politics’ indicating that one of its strongest resolve is to establish honey factories across Ghana.

In a release signed by its General Secretary Razak Kojo Opoku, it advised that the older generation should consider only honey intake and leave the sugar for children and the youth.

“Children and youth constitute the majority of the Ghanaian population and the aged are in minority. Therefore, it is baseless and hollow for anyone to argue that it is needless for the older generation to desist from sugar intake.” he said.unity-walk-banner2

According to him, the purpose for the establishment of the Komenda Sugar Factory was to produce quality localized sugar to improve the nutrition of Children and the youth and not established to cause the problems of Type 1 Diabetes, Type 2 Diabetes and Vascular Dementia for stubborn older generation who do not consider their health conditions.

“The future APC Government shall establish honey factories across Ghana to increase the production of honey to improve the diet of the aged”
