“When everyone wants to build a factory he sends it to Tema. As a country, we can not put all our eggs in one basket like that. When I come to power I will ensure that Amasaman to Suhum becomes an industrial hub. Whoever wants to build a factory will be made to bring it to Amasaman. We will allow them to register for the 24-hour economy. If they register we will reduce taxes so that they will have enough money to expand their factories," he said.

He assured residents of the area of the needed security saying "police posts will be built here and the youth will be employed in the Ghana Police Service to provide the needed security so that they don’t have to deal with armed robbers”.
