North Tongu to celebrate 41st National Farmers’ Day ahead of national event

The North Tongu District will mark the 41st National Farmers‘ Day with a district durbar on Thursday, November 27, 2025, at the Alabonu D/A Basic School Park. The event is being held earlier than the national celebration because the Volta Region is hosting the main national ceremony this year.

This year’s national theme, “Feed Ghana, Eat Ghana, Secure the Future,” reflects the country’s ongoing commitment to enhancing food security and strengthening agricultural resilience.

In a statement, Mrs Victoria Amefadzi Yawa Doe, the District Chief Executive, extended an open invitation to farmers, fisherfolk, traditional leaders, institutions, and residents to take part in honouring the hardworking individuals who keep the district’s food systems functional and contribute significantly to economic growth.

She noted that the event is being organised in collaboration with Mr Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, Member of Parliament and Minister for Foreign Affairs, underscoring a shared dedication to recognising excellence in agriculture.

Mrs Doe highlighted the importance of celebrating the district’s “food heroes,” whose contributions ensure sustainability and drive national development.

The celebration will include the presentation of awards to outstanding farmers and distinguished contributors across various agricultural disciplines.
