NPP's King-David Norgbey Calls for Change: "Love Ghana, Patronize Local Industries"

Ho, Volta Region - In a passionate plea on GBC Volta Star Morning Show with Tony Mark-Boye on 30th October, 2025, King-David Norgbey, Member of the Communications Team of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and Ho Central Constituency Organizer, has called on Ghanaians to prioritize local industries and break free from the shackles of imported goods.

According to Norgbey, Ghana's problems are self-inflicted, stemming from a lack of pride in local produce and an over-reliance on foreign goods. "We're beginning to love our own political parties more than ourselves," he lamented, emphasizing the need for a mindset shift.

Norgbey criticized the profiteering that occurs from importing goods like rice and textiles, which could be produced locally in a healthier and more nutritious manner. "We need to be proud of our indigenous produce and patronize them," he stressed.

The NPP communicator also advocated for the depoliticization of economic issues, urging stakeholders to work together to better the lot of Ghanaians. "Issues of economic importance should be treated with the seriousness they deserve, beyond party lines," he said.

Norgbey's call to action has resonated with many in the Volta Region, who are eager to see a boost in local industries and economic growth. As the country grapples with economic challenges, his words serve as a timely reminder of the importance of self-reliance and local content.

Norgbey's Plea: A Call to Action for Ghanaians

The call for Ghanaians to prioritize local industries is a step in the right direction. By supporting local production, we can reduce our reliance on foreign goods, create jobs, and stimulate economic growth.

As Norgbey aptly put it, "Our problems as a country are not exogenous; they are self-inflicted." It's time for us to take ownership of our economic challenges and work towards a more sustainable future.

As the country looks to the future, Norgbey's call for self-reliance and local content is a message that resonates deeply. With the NPP's commitment to promoting local industries, there's hope that Ghana can break free from the cycle of dependency and forge a new path of economic prosperity.

As one listener aptly put it, "It's time for us to take control of our economy and build a better future for ourselves and future generations." Will Norgbey's call to action be the catalyst for change that Ghana needs? Only time will tell.
