Excellent initiative, but use mechanised system not wheelbarrow and cutlasses like in the 18 century, black man everything is about human strength instead of machine, cheap labour.
Oh meeeeehn......... The best need I've heard in s loooooooong while. Make the military more useful. Maximize their expertise. But don't forget to enrol the services of my Bukom women to help teach you the rudiments of 'manuf ...

Hello youth of Ghana. .. ..You can take your own life with medicine......for instance 15 paracetamol at once. Or combine medicine and akpeteshie or weedicide. . .
The Game Arrived Forces to engage in the making of Kenkey is a misplaced priority. The Ghana Armed Forces has a basic requirement that cannot be compromised with anything. They are to protect and defend the territorial integr ...

This is a commercial venture and not about feeding himself. Read carefully and understand context before making unnecessary statements
A very wise move. I have been advocating for the use of our military , the fine men and women in the GAF, with their expertises , to embark on food productions ,road , bridges, bridges, highways and tunnels and housing const ...

Fact! You said it all.
Shia! When others are developing STEM, drones, and going to SPACE?
Idiocricy to the Max!
I hope this is not another empty talk talk as usual.
Leave that out. Enhance the engineers section so they bid for these big government contracts. The local contractors for the roads just take the big contracts outsource them to foreign partners and supervise local staff and pr ...

It is long overdue.
This is common sense.
The Military has been sitting aloof for ages.
San kɔ fa. This is Workers Brigade in new uniform.
True dat, seniorman, but Sankɔfa is better than nothing!
a single n common helicopter, the same Air Force could not maintain it well or upgrade with mordern GPS and weather sensors ...
sometimes it is best to just shut up o, abeg!
is about time...
Is it WASSA or GHASSA ??
Clothing and shoes too?.
Will reduce our imports
Are we serious at all as a nation. Our armed forces producing kenkey and bread? Whiles the armed forces of other countries are creating inventions like the internet and other useful stuff.hmmm
This is laudable. However, let this not take over your core mandate. Keep focused
the feel good factor is happening across all sectors. that is very encouraging. that is what happens when you get a good leader and we have one in john mahama.
Awww please I only want the spots you will be selling the iproducts. Great display of intelligence and wisdom by the Ghana Armed Forces.
Kwasia military..focus on security issues and leave kenkey and bread making for the civilians..lobby for fighter jets,drones and sophisticated equipment to safeguard the borders of the country...what would kenkey and bread do ...

Spoken like an unimaginative soldier from a country that has lost any sense of imagination. These ventures could end up providing an avenue for corruption. If the military wanted to help, they should institute measures to inc ...

Eiiiiii, kankey military.
At least, it is better than doing nothing, and receiving salaries every month. Hmmmmm.
I beg oooo. BURMA CAMP is tooooooo dirty. From the entrance to any part of the camp is filthy. The grass has not seen water for years. All kinds of dilapidated kiosk and wooden structures. Please do some manicure/pedicure on ...

Mr man, you are making a huge sense.
You are really telling the truth. Infact that trotro station with that ugly cars must not have their way there. People petrol the base anyhow
Several of such similar ventures have been previously tried by the Ghana Armed Forces but failed miserably. Hope enough research has gone in to know exactly why such ventures failed. Greed, selfishness and unreasonable instru ...

Hahahahah they now laughing stock..drone technology and space technology u guys are thinking Kenkey and Bread production...hahahahahhaha mmoa
NDC government is in a mess,a soldier has to be taken measures about security of the country not making kenkey and breads
When they are at WAR they cook for them , i don't think its your mother who cooks them , they employ people to cook.
Long overdue . Well donefor even starting this laudable initiative. Good move Sir .
This will help to generate income internally
Where have all the soldiers gone? I hope we dont focus much on food kenkey and bread and forget about security where the enemy would just come and meet us unprepared. At least man must not live by bread alone but must also pl ...

Please do it with all seriousness, its a great innovation, this could be a source of IGF and social help for students.
Extremely commendable. Please consider amaranth, quinoa, lentils, Congo beans and other legumes. Also, examine the possibility of raising goats and even capybara.
Is that their mandate?
They have nothing better doing.
We have GAF and cannot stop galamsey then what's their usefulness here?
We can also call it soja dokono and they should make it nice for our fathers, mother's brothers and sisters. In no size Ghana Army. Thumbs up
Banana republic rhetoric at its best!
THANKS FOR YOUR INTELLIGENT DRIVE INTO MUCH NEEDED IGFs. FANTASTIC IDEA, Sir.
THE ETHIOPIANS HAVE ACHIEVED GREATNESS DOING SOMETHING LIKE THAT ON THE NATIONAL LEVEL. THEIRS, PROVE THE FEASIBILITY OF IGF's, and I applaud you ...
