PIWAK CEO Collaborates with Government to Donate Ghanaian Rice to Cuba, Jamaica, and Sudan
In a remarkable show of international solidarity and support for local agriculture, PIWAK Natural Health, in collaboration with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Government of Ghana, has donated thousands of bags of Ghanaian-grown rice to Cuba, Jamaica, and Sudan.
The donation, made on November 7, 2025, forms part of Ghana’s broader effort to provide humanitarian aid to nations in crisis while promoting the country’s agricultural sector.
The Chief Executive Officer of PIWAK Natural Health, Dr. Prince Nelson Mototi, expressed his organization’s delight in contributing to the government’s initiative, emphasizing the importance of using locally produced rice as a testament to Ghana’s capability to produce high-quality food products.
“It is Ghanaian-grown rice that has been made available as the Government of Ghana extends aid to the good people of Cuba, Jamaica, and Sudan,” Dr. Mototi stated.
During the donation ceremony, Dr. Mototi commended the Government of Ghana for its commitment to promoting Made-in-Ghana agricultural products and called for increased support for local farmers. He emphasized that with greater attention and investment, Ghanaian farmers could significantly boost production to meet both local and international demand.
“There’s so much potential in our agricultural sector. With the right support, Ghana can lead in the production of Made-in-Ghana goods,” he noted.
Former President John Dramani Mahama, who oversaw the donation, reiterated Ghana’s commitment to standing in solidarity with nations facing hardship. The relief items, valued at GH¢10 million, include Ghana rice, cocoa products, mattresses, and other essential supplies — with 50% allocated to Jamaica, 30% to Cuba, and 20% to the International Red Cross for Sudan.
The donation follows the devastating impact of Hurricane Melissa on Jamaica and Cuba, and the ongoing conflict in Sudan, which has resulted in severe humanitarian challenges. Ghana’s contribution aims to provide relief and reaffirm the country’s dedication to international cooperation and support for nations in need.
