He was addressing supporters of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) in Juaso in the Asante-Akim South Constituency as part of his five-day election campaign in the Ashanti Region.
Mr. Debrah said they had over the last four years pursued well thought out policies to get the economy on an even keel to encourage the establishment of new businesses.
He made reference to what he termed as the massive infrastructure development across all key sectors of the economy and said it was only a matter of time for Ghanaians to “feel the impact of the huge investments made”.
He pledged the determination of the Mahama Administration to continue to put in more investment in the agriculture sector to enhance productivity and returns to the farmer.
