    The man is organically inept with hollow pride. Such a clueless criminal who was remote-controlled by Ken Ofori Atta on behalf of the akyem sakawa mafia should shut up and wait for his day of accountability.

    It is a reflection of the quality of the Chief Executive Officers we have in Ghana! Just a confused bunch of protoplasmic materials! They all went to school to learn how not to make govt entities work.

    How could you incurred a debt of $32.5 billion and claimed you saved the Cocoa industry? Jail awaits you for the mess caused. You paid yourself over GHC 70,000 a month and looked COCOBOD.
