Upper West Regional Minister Calls for NPA to Establish Cylinder Manufacturing Company in Northern Ghana<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The Upper West Regional Minister, Hon. Stephen Yakubu, articulated a compelling vision for economic development in Ghana during a town hall event held on April 29, 2024, at the Upper West Regional Library in Wa.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Addressing participants at a Town Hall Meeting on Cylinder Recirculation Model, Hon. Stephen Yakubu urged the National Petroleum Authority (NPA) to take proactive steps towards establishing a cylinder manufacturing company in Northern Ghana.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
He emphasized the potential transformative impact such an initiative could have on the local economy, particularly in terms of job creation for the youth.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Hon. Yakubu underscored the pressing need for sustainable employment opportunities in Northern Ghana, highlighting the significant socio-economic challenges facing the area.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
By advocating for the establishment of a cylinder manufacturing company, he sought to address this need while also promoting economic diversification and resilience.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Moreover, Hon. Yakubu positioned the Cylinder Recirculation Model (CRM) as a pivotal component of the government’s strategy to promote environmental sustainability and public safety.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
He lauded the CRM as a progressive policy aimed at encouraging the widespread adoption of LPG usage while mitigating the environmental impact of traditional energy sources.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
By promoting clean energy alternatives, Hon. Yakubu asserted, the government could safeguard the environment for future generations and reduce the risk of gas-related accidents.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
He therefore called upon the NPA to address community concerns and ensure that the interests of all stakeholders are taken into consideration.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
