We should stop these N-DC/PP no even and look for pragmatic solutions. All these party footsoldiers rather than taking g money from the parry for no work done should take advantage of this situation to produce the tomatoes to ...

Most contracts is been given to NPP companies ,And soon I will publish these companies, this 2 parties are criminals ,we will get them soon
Did our Government know about this decision earlier or BF just woke up and announced the ban?

Ibrahim Traore of Burkina Faso is more sensible than any GH president apart from Nkrumah.
Ghanaian politicians are only interested in their stomach
Akuffo Ado is the wisest. Troare is not wise, he is insecure.
