  the farmers are also pushing their children into white coloured jobs; better Ghana agenda: better cocoa strategy is the solution. Living in the rural areas is now a punishment from the pit of hell.

  The youth would troop to the village to take cocoa farming when price become attractive and some form of financial interventions put in place during the cocoa lean season. At the moment, majority of farmers are poor and cannot afford to buy meat or medicine when they are sick, meanwhile people like Dr Opuni who cannot even hold a cutlass sit in comfort and money at the toil of these poor labourers. I am not Dr. Opuni will even give a lift to a poor cocoa farmer in his air condition car going through the same route as the farmer.
