How long has Randy been in office to take an annual leave? Despite that he was able to take time off his leave to attend the World Cup draw in the United States, sacrificing the National Farmers' Day. He just wants to be insulted for nothing.

The reason why the COCOBOD organization continues to systematically let our country down as far as our position as a major world producer is concerned, is because they continue to employ wrong people in that institution - both at the administrative and executive levels.

Just look at the reason given by that so-called PRO? Of all the possible cover-up reasons he could have conjured to exonerate his errant boss, is this the best that he could do? And this is a PRO of COCOBOD, a major global player in one of the world's most vital agricultural products and item of trade.

Mr. Randy Abbey himself must be a very audacious man for thinking that, he could get away with his offensive absence at the very important annual Farmers Day event. And he was not away due to his needed presence at some international conference to discuss the threatened quality, the sharply reducing quantity and the price of Ghana's cocoa on the international markets but he flew all the way to Washington to go and merely sit there to observe some other international football officials draw world cup pairings for the group stages of the actual competition next year.

Even if in the far-fetched possibility that Randy Abbey, who is more known in football circles, went to the Washington event to explore how COCOBOD can plug in some publicity on Ghana's cocoa or chocolate products in the global telecasts of the event next year, I still wouldn't have excused his absence. This is a major faux pas.

This terrible error of judgment by Randy Abbey, reverberates beyond the boundaries of the agric sector, into that of mainstream politics. It adds up to a creeping number of distasteful occurrences which steadily add up, not only to make govts unpopular but to also send signals of disappointment, hopelessness and despair among sympathizers and the citizenry in general.

ARE THESE TOP CLASS OF CRIMINALS TOO SPECIAL AND UNTOUCHABLE TO BE ARRESTED, PROSECUTED AND JAILED WITH ALL THEIR ASSETS CONFISCATED TO THE BANKRUPTED STATE OF GHANA??

WHAT KIND OF ANIMALS KINGDOM DO WE LIVE IN IN GHANA?

THIS LOOTING PRACTICE HAS BEEN HARMING GHANA'S "ECOMINI" SINCE 1957 BUT GHANAIANS HAVE NEVER HEARD ABOUT A CHIEF OF POLITICIAN OR A BUSINESSMAN LIKE SAM JONAH AND OTHERS LIKE KUFUOR, AKUFO-ADDO, SUCCESSIVE OTUMFUORS SMUGGLING OUT GHANA'S GOLD AND/OR DIAMONDS, LATELY ON PRIVATE JETS, SINCE 1957.

WHAT'S GOOD FOR THE GEESE IS EQUALLY GOOD FOR THE GANDER.

RICH AND PROMINENT GHANAIANS AND FOREIGNERS IN GHANA CANNOT BE SMUGGLING GHANA'S TOP FOREX EARNERS, WHILE THE POOR FARMER IS ARRESTED FOR SMUGGLING MARIJUANA AND OTHER WEED NACOTICS.

AGAIN, WHAT'S GOOD FOR THE GEESE IS EQUALLY GOOD FOR THE GANDER.

Randy Abbey is not fit to manage COCOBOD.
He likes football more than the position Mahama has given him so Mr President take the position from him.
Can’t NDC appointment someone who can manage that portfolio.

This position occupied by this Ga man who has no idea of a Cocoa farm and never even been to the farm before could have been given to a real educated son of a cocoa farmer from Ahanfo but because of dirty tribalism and pure hatred for Akans by NDC leaders they’ve given this sensitive position to this fat ass idiot who only knows footballers and their team they play.

@ Akans who votes for NDC are the most foolish low IQ people in Ghana. Going by your own primitive tribalistic logic, perhaps the reason why they didn't give the COCOBOD CEO job to an Akan person is probably because they couldn't find an Akan person who is enlightened enough to handle the sophisticated and complex nature of the job at COCOBOD. And then again, to put some light into the darkness of your brain, COCOBOD does not plant cocoa. COCOBOD does not therefore own farms. What COCOBOD does is to financially and technically assist cocoa farmers improve the quality and quantity of their produce for purchase by COCOBOD.

The Cocoa crop is currently struggling to keep up with its critical position as the most important agricultural crop and the backbone of the Ghanaian economy and even though it appears that Randy Abbey goofed big time by not being present at the annual Farmers Day event when the President himself was present, it isn't because he is a Ga man like Tetteh Quarshie who was the one who introduced cocoa to Ghana in the first place.

To say what difference would his presence have made if he were at the farmers day event is bogus. If i may ask; what difference will his position as CEO of cocobod bring to Ghana and for that matter cocoa farmer? After cocoa farmers don't need his presence on their farms to plant or harvest.

@Edward, the least said about your argument the better. How much does each of the other areas of the agricultural sector of Ghana contribute more than the cocoa industry? Cocoa is a key backbone of our economy and to suggest that the CEO of COGOBOD was absent from the Farmers' Day celebrations because of he was on leave is the most disingenuous thing to say. But what should we expect? When you put square pegs in round holes, this is what you'll end up with. Not surprising at all.
