  Mr Man, be truthful, your support was to only NDC simpathezers and that is what the famers are complaining of. Because your government engaged in selective spraying of the cocoa trees, the work done was cos zero.

  Why is Dr. Baah lashing outagainst cocoa farmers. For far too long, cocoa farmers have been cheated by these cocoa board staff. When did you 'akrakyefo' on cocoa board help cocoa farmers? You have never help these poor farmers who had been shouldering the financial burden of this country for far too long.
  
  You have no reason to lash out against cocoa farmers. I am sure this Baah is NDC appointee, the people who have looted stolen our countrymonies. Shame, shame!!! Dr. Baah.

  Dr Baah in your records, you might have noticed
  that.But I tell you, and assured you that, that
  optimum support to the cocoa farmers never reached every cocoa farmer. Who distributed the
  aids? How did you distribute them. Do you know
  you live on a land full of dishonest,and greedy
  officials. NDC officials will not reach to their
  opponent farmers. Do you know that middlemen
  were involved. FERTILIZERS,SEEDLINGS etc never
  reached every cocoa farmer.Go to ADWUMASU,
  AKUKURUTU farming areas in Fanteakwa District
  I have cocoa farms there I never saw that.
  How many cocoa producing areas did you go there
  yourself as a fact-finding. You sit in your and
  just talk to girl friends. You must shut-up you
  mouth, MR DR., It is AFRICAN MENTALITY.

  HOW LONG SHOULD THE HARDWORKING ILLITERATE COCOA FARMERS CONTINUE TO FEED THE NATION WITH EXPORT OF THEIR COCOA BAENS.
  
  WHAT HAVE BEEN THE CONTRIBUTION OF THE THE SO CALLED EDUCATED WITH BIG DEGREES AND PHD TITLES CONTRIBUTUED TOWARDS THE ECONOMIC GROWTH AND DEVELOPMET OF GHANA.
  
  ARE GHANAIANs ONLY EDUCATED TO BE APPOINTED TO POSITIONS AT THE PUBLIC SECTOR AND TO BECOME PPOLITICIANS FOR NON INNOVATIVE AND TECHNOLOGICAL PRODUCTIVE WORK IN THE COUNTRY.
  
  THUIS SHOULD SOUND VERY DISGRACEFUL AND SHAMEFUL ON THEIR ACQUIRED ACADEMIC TITLES.
  
  GHANA IS ECONNMIC BACKWARD, UNDRRDEVRELOPED AND POOR BECAUSE,THE SO CALLED EDUCATED DO NOT HAVE INNOVATIVE SKILLS TO ACCELERATE ECO´NOMIC GROWTH IN THE COUNTRY.
  
  WAS IT AT ALL WORTH FOR THEM TO STUDY WHERE PROGRESS OF THE THE NATION IS STILL AT STANDSTILL.

  Folks let's be realistic. Dr Baah can't reach every single cocoa farmer in the country. The point made was clear; there are policies/programs in place to give farmers the needed assistance. Farmers are encouraged to also play their part. There may be isolated cases but a larger number of farmers will benefit or are beneficiaries of government interventions. Let's all appreciate what has been done and continue to play our respective roles in making these programs work. It's easier to sit on the sidelines and criticize. Join in and help educate our farmers.
