Worse than incompetent. Within 2 years of Mills coming to power Ghana hit the 1m tonne mark for cocoa production. The stupid ndc took credit for it but we all know it takes more than 2 years for cocoa to mature. Now 8 years after the ndc government our output is only 0.75m tonnes. This vice is even worse than mahama. With his village people moustache we all know everything he says is as straight as himself

Frankly speaking, things are hard. For the president to even come out and say he is currently at the foundation stage of the implementation of his and his party's ideas after almost 60 years of attaining independence implies that we are way behind in terms of development or good leadership! How? Where did it go wrong for this country? A window suffers to put her kids through school. Begs at times and endures insults and humiliation all in the process to see her kids graduate university only to be told there are no jobs for them to do! A tax payer can not access better healthcare, or have the luxury of uninterrupted power and water supply! Roads are bad, education standards are falling and just because a few fortunate ones pass they claim all is well. Do a sample and you will realize over 80 percent of those who pass are either from wealthy families or from elite schools with all due respect to them without taking credit from their efforts by the way. People languish in adverse poverty and during elections you come to them to share money (their own money you stole) to them in an attempt to take advantage of their already vulnerable situation just to hold on to power! Funny enough, you turn to blame the same media that projected you into power. No wonder it is said that it is only a bad farmer who blames his tools for poor harvests. Let's us Ghanaians 'shine' our eyes! If they give you anything, take it and still vote them out! No vow they make or force you take will have an effect on you. After all, it is your own money! Even 'they' are still alive. The only way the NDC might win this elections especially getting the said number of votes they talked about in the Ashanti Region, NPPs stronghold is by interrupting or influencing the electioneering processes. When issues like, delay in starting opening voting, delay in the arrival of election materials or the officers, low battery to power the gadgets, etc. start happening on that day, then I wouldn't be surprised! We want a free and a fair elections! Let the vote of the people count! Every eligible voter must be allowed to exercise his/her franchise without any form of frustration or intimidation whatsoever! Ghana is bigger than any individual or political party! Ghana must come first! We are one people with one come destiny! Long live Ghana and God bless us all!

So is the Vice President saying the NDC government has not made cocoa a priority yet?i don't understand,if after 7 and half years NDC re now promising to make cocoa a priority it's either Amissah Artur is confuse or reciving the people and must be ignored.Ghanaians must read in between the line very well,the NDC is badl exposed in the years campaign,it's full of contradictions and you wonder if there's any co ordination in what they re doing.

VEEP, WHEN THAT IS THE CASE, WHO ARE THE PEOPLE WHO SHOULD CONTINUE TO GROW AND PRODUCE COCOA IN THE COUNTRY.

SHOULD IT CONTINUE TO REST ON THE HEADS OF ILLITERATE HARDWOKING COCOA FARMERS.

GHANA CAN ONLY INCREASE COCOA PRODUCTION, WHEN, THE MANY AGRICULTURAL OFFICERS IDLING AT THE MINISTRY OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE, ITS REGIONAL AND DISTRICT OFFICES ARE CHARGED TO GO INTO COCOA FARMING AND TO INCREASE AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTIVITY AT THE SECTOR.

HOW LONG SHOULD COCOA FARMERS CONTINUE TO EARN THE NATIONS HARD CURRENCY TO SERVICE NATIONAL BUDGETS, WAGES AND SALARIES, THE IMPORTATION OF COMMODITIES AND FOOD ITEMS AND EXPENSIVE CARS AND JEEPS FOR USRE BY NON PRODUCTIVE EDUCATED AT THE PUBLIC SECTOR.

IT IS TIME FOR THE NATION TO KNOW,WHAT THE EDUCATED WITH BIG DEGREES AND PHD TITLES HAVE CONTRIBUTED TOWARDS THE ECONOMIC GROWTH AND AND DEVELOPMENT IN THE COUNTRY.

OTHERWISE, IT HAS TO BE DEEMED, THE EDUCATED EXPLOITING THE LCOCIA FARMERS AND THE UNSKILLED MINE WORKERS FOR THEIR LAVISH LIFESTYLES IN THE COUNTRY.

Mr. Vice President it is not automatic for a President to have two term in office. It is by good works, from your speech u made mention of former President J.J Rawlings and J.A. Kuffour, its because of their Good works. Ghanaians are sick and tied of your fake promises.

On a more serious note, the youth of this nation are for change. We are for Nana Addo.

We are all supporting agenda "Get Mahama Out"

In this era of reckless dissipation of state funds into the pockets of party apparatchiks and those shouting the praises of this moribund administration, I am happy to learn that there are newsmen and women frustrating the President and his appointees.

I bet my bottom pesewa that the so-called frustration borders on cronyism. Six years after it was discovered that bungling officials of this administration had paid Mr. Alfred Woyome, described in official bulletins as a financier of the ruling National Democratic Congress, a whopping GH¢51.2 million for no work done, the Mahama regime has failed to recoup the people’s money.
