  Misplaced call. At the time the factory was built we used to eat corned beef. The structure of the economy was also different to what we have today. How many people still eat corned beef today? How will that meat be processed and sold and where is the market? Most of the workers in Upper East are civil servants, they dont have money to buy meat and those who have prefer to go to the local market to buy a live goat, go and kill it for the family. A lot of people have migrated to Kumasi, Acrra and other big cities and that is where the market is now. In any case do we need government to establish factories after the failed 1D1F initiative. What about the Pwalugu tomatoes factory? We have to realize that business belongs to the private sector not government. There are citizens from the UE who have money to establish such factories in the North but there is no market. There is local abattoir and that is where people go to buy meat. We have to think outside the box and stop relying on government

  The idea that government and not the private sector is the creator of businesses is a bad legacy left by Nkrumah. No surprise, they have all collapsed.
