These cocoa trading companies have a one-time opportunity to make Ghana pay for its cocoa mismanagement. After all these years we don’t have control over our cocoa; production is falling because of contaminated soil from illegal mining.

Last election year, it.was a loan of about a billion dollars, and we still had outstanding payments Cocbod had to make. I hope they don't get this loan, as they're just going to use it to fund elections. What a waste!!!

Management of cocobod is a disgrace and shame to Ghana. For all these years, they can't stand on their feet to transact business without borrowing money to buy cocoa. There is something wrong and the government must first stop political appointments to the industry and give it the freedom to operate as a private entity.

No bank should lend to them. The local banks that they collapsed should have been supported to be lending to the cocoboard so that the resources stay within. Cocoa buyers should even boycott cocoa from Ghana because it's contaminated with mercury from illegal gold mining
