Western Region ready to partner investors who will add value to natural resources – Minister

Western Regional Minister Hon. Kwabena Okyere Darko-Mensah says the region is ready to partner with any investor ready to add value to the huge natural resources in the region.

He said despite its great contributions to Ghana’s Economy, the region is yet to realize its full potential of creating wealth for the people.

The Regional Minister said this when a 3 member team from Palermo city in Italy paid a courtesy call on him yesterday at his office.

The team is in Takoradi on an exchange program which was part of the implementation of twin cities in a sustainable partnership project between the city of Palermo in Italy and the Sekondi Takoradi.

The Regional Minister was hopeful that the partnership will be one of the many opportunities that the two cities will offer in areas of tourism, agriculture, arts and culture as well as the local economy.

Lawyer Francesco Campagna a counsellor of Ghana in Sicily from Italy also spoke to the media.

“We are bridging the channel to promote the two cities, durable collaborations for investors to find the right partners here in all sectors, even in agriculture, tourism and art, including others.”

The team also had some engagements with the Sekondi Takoradi Chamber of Commerce and Students of the Takoradi Technical University.
