It is not salary. Cocoa farmers sell their beans at a price dictated by World Comodity price. We learn Profit & Loss in school. It appears the useless NPP supporters didn't learn Profit & Loss

The cocoa farmers are thinking of forming their own organization to sell their cocoa directly to the world devoid of government intervention and involvement. Independence is good and liberates you. The farmers can use their position to leverage better selling prices. The govt government is seeing what the farmers want to do. They don't like it. They are now proposing to provide college scholarships, farming products to appease the farmers n to prevent them from breaking away from the govt

I was discussion this with a friend the other day that NDC will come up with something to fool our farmers, and here we go. After forcing them to cry bitterly, John Mahama will try anything to woo the farmers knowing the political ramification about the cocoa price reduction.

Our farmers should not buy into this "Ananse story" because it is just a ploy to fool them.

This is exactly how cocobod got itself into the current crises. How about the children of yam and cassava farmers? Are their parents not recognised as contributing to ghana's development? Unless you want to tell us that cocoa is more important than yam cassava rice etc. But Ghanaian poloticians are also looking for easy avenues to steal. With the scholarship scheme they can send their own abroad to school Claiming them to be children of cocoa farmers. Cocoa farmers are not doing charity work ghana. They are in business and making money like all of us. So why single out their children for scholarships? This discriminatory nonsense has to stop

I don't understand why the ordinary gh citizen can't obtain a loan to attend university or a trade school after high school? No wonder these kids are engaging in galamsay, robbery wayward behaviors..poor gh kids should be able to obtain loans to attend school when they start working you can deduct the loans from their salaries. Rich n middle class gh kids don't need the loans because of their parent income and wouldn't qualify for such govt loans. That's how it should be. Currently so many ppl are selling on these streets, engaging in prostitution etc because after shs they are stuck. No money, no job

No wonder that the difference between Internet fraudsters and gonja mafia john Mahama is that whilst the former use laptops, gonja mafia uses his brother to steal from the poor Ghanaians.

Mu Abobo Adam. You play with people's lives and minds right ?

Why not free primary education but Free Tertiary Education.... They should build the foundation for their children themselves so you guys continue right ? They should take responsibilities for all the hardworking so that you meet them halfway right ?

And what about the farmers themselves ? What are they going to live on until their cocoa are ready for harvest. They should go hungry and wear tethered clothes until you harvest their produce and give them shit money right ?

Our leaders have failed us. Ghana is a failed state. Can't anybody see. ? Everything about us is shit and wrong. The government doesn't give a about Agriculture, Our road networks are shit, Electricity is a shit Bum, Waste Management is Shit, Public Transport is Shit. EVERYTHING is shit about Ghana. When is this going ro change ?
