He called on the “Church to work with relevant government agencies to campaign against inappropriate use of chemicals by vegetable farmers and fruit sellers to protect the health of Ghanaians and family incomes.”

Prof Gatsi explained that annual harvest by the Church is a reminder to members to be productive and hardworking though fundraising is the ultimate goal.

He bemoaned the situation in the country in which “almost everything natural is being destroyed” adding that “Our forests, farmlands and the produce from the farmlands.”
