The Ghana National Association of Farmers and Fishermen (GNAFF) has officially sworn in a new president, Michael Tetteh Kwetey, following a formal handover ceremony from outgoing leader Nene Terkpertey Agblezie I.
Speaking during his inaugural address, Mr. Kwetey pledged to lead the Association with dedication, promising to build on the momentum of his election victory and the commitment shown by members.
“Together, we shall increase productivity and profit margins and contribute our greatest share to feed Ghana and her people,” he said, earning applause from the gathering of farmers, fisherfolk, and stakeholders.
Mr. Kwetey noted that his leadership would focus on addressing food security challenges, while ushering in what he described as “a new era of progress and transformation” to drive massive growth in Ghana’s agricultural sector.
“As President of GNAFF, I shall put the Association first in all my considerations,” he assured. “We will work hand in hand with the Ministry of Food and Agriculture as wealthy partners in the reset agenda, ensuring we play our role effectively as allies in building a resilient and prosperous agricultural economy.”
Outgoing President Nene Terkpertey Agblezie I, who led the Association through years of steady growth, expressed confidence in his successor, urging members to rally behind Mr. Kwetey to push GNAFF to greater heights.
The ceremony, which brought together government officials, industry leaders, and farmer cooperatives, signaled a renewed drive for innovation, collaboration, and economic empowerment in the agriculture and fisheries sectors.
