Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Sanitation and Water Resources, Mr. Michael Gyato has expressed his ministry’s candid commitment to continue to support Zoomlion and the Jospong Group of Companies.

He was optimistic that when the Jospong Group of Companies succeed, the sanitation ministry takes the credit and that is why the ministry will not relent its support to the JGC and other waste management companies operating in the country.

Mr. Gyato made the statement in Accra at the Zoomlion and Jospong Group of Companies Annual Thanksgiving grand durbar when he represented the Minister of Sanitation and Water Resources, Hon. Cecilia Abena Dapaah.

He said Jospong is becoming the biggest conglomerate in the world and that is the pride of Ghana and urged Ghanaians to support businesses that have the potential to raise the flag of Ghana high.

Zoomlion and the Jospong Group of Companies has committed itself since 2006 to organising a five-day annual thanksgiving services to honour God for blessing their efforts. The theme this year was “The Lord Has Done Great Things For Us (Psalm 126:3)”.

Preaching the sermon, the Chairman of the Church of Pentecost, Rev. Eric Kwabena Nyamekye urged leaders to sow seeds in tears so that generations will reap in joy. He said leaders should not squander the very seed that is to be sown, it should be sown even as leaders are hungry and God will bless their effort.

Rev. Nyamekye advised politicians especially in the NPP and NDC to stop worrying themselves and live in harmony. They should also stop the gargantuan promises they make without considering how to fulfil them.

He decried how Ghanaian leaders want to compare Ghana with countries like the United States of America to the extent that the things and life Americans do and live we too should want to do same.

When American leaders were sowing the seeds for their unborn generations to benefit Ghana was nowhere so stop comparing Ghana with America he said.
