The Minister for Defence, Dr. Edward Omane Boamah, has sworn in a nine-member governing board for the Defence Industries Holding Company Limited (DIHOC), urging them to fully optimise DIHOC’s potential through innovation and enhanced collaboration with the private sector.

Speaking at the swearing-in ceremony on Monday in Accra, he stated that the government has identified DIHOC as a key player in several flagship projects and policies under its RESET agenda, aimed at establishing a 24-hour economy in Ghana.

He emphasised that this initiative aligns with the broader government objective of building a 24-hour economy to boost productivity and create new employment opportunities.

Dr. Boamah noted that the reconstituted DIHOC Board is expected to play a pivotal role in positioning Ghana as a hub for defence manufacturing, innovation, and strategic industrial partnerships.

“Our vision for DIHOC is clear. We are committed to establishing a world-class Defence Industrial Complex (DIC) that will drive industrialisation, generate decent and well-paying jobs, and significantly boost the national economy,” the Minister stated.

He urged the board to collaborate with other ministries and uphold the highest standards of governance, adding: “You are stewards of an institution that holds the promise of industrialising our defence sector, empowering our people, creating jobs, and protecting our future.”

The Minister also commended the creation of the Defence Industrial Complex, calling it a strategic initiative aimed at achieving several interconnected objectives aligned with Ghana’s long-term defence and development targets.

The Chairman of the Board, Mr. Ernest Brogya Genfi, promised on behalf of the members to improve DIHOC’s effectiveness through strategic leadership and a firm commitment to accountability.

He also pledged to uphold the highest standards of integrity, transparency, and good governance.

Other members of the board include Mr. Emmanuel A. Kartey (Chief Director, MoD), Lt. Gen. William Agyapong (CDS), Brig. Gen. Kwaku Dankwa Hagan, Brig. Gen. Charles Gbekle (Esq.), Kojo Gyeke Darko, Vida Addae, Emmanuel Drah (MP), and Col. John Asabre (Rtd).
