Well written. But what you have not told us is what the relationship between France and its colonies is regarding their economic management. Are you aware that La Cote d'Ivoire and the other francophone countries who agree to have to keep up to 40% of all their foreign exchange earnings in France with the French government? What they get in return is that France shores up their economies with figures that make it look like their are doing really well. France subsidises almost everything including utilities. Is Ghana prepared to allow such a system to be applied by a colonial master? Mr Gbagbo wanted this system abolished, in fact he pleaded to have the figure reduced to 20% but this was refused. This is one of the main reasons he was kicked out. If you get the real Ivorians who know the truth they will give it to you. Most of the cocoa farms, cash crop farms, industries are all foreign owned. The indegenes are just participants or onlookers. There is more to it than fgures portray. Get down to Abidjan and the other cites and you will find the divisions - European sector and the African sector. Do you want this in Ghana?

WHAT ANDREWS FAILED TO TELL US WAS THAT COTE D'VOIRE IS IN THE CFA MONEY ZONE, YES IT IS THE LEADING EXPORTER OF COCOA IN THE WORLD, THE FARMS ARE CONTROLLED PRIVATELY BY FRENCH INVESTORS, GHANA'S BEAN IS THE BEST THOUGH CONTROLLED BY THE STATE. BY THIS ARTICLE IS THE TESCON MAN ANDREW ASAMOAH IMPLYING THE NANA ADDO WILL DO WHAT FORMER PRESIDENT KUFFOUR COULDN'T DO? I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW AN ASPIRING PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE SEEKING VOTES TO ATTAIN POWER, CAN ONLY BE LOOKING AT HIS OPPONENT IN POWER'S LAPSES AND THOSE IN THE ECONOMY BESIDES OTHER MYRIAD OF PROBLEMS AND SIMPLY H-O-P-E THAT BY MERELY POKING AND POINTING AT THESE THINGS, HE CAN WIN ELECTIONS, WITHOUT TELLING AND SHOWING HOW HE INTEND TO SOLVE THE PROBLEMS HE HAS IDENTIFIED. SORRY BUT IT LOOKS SILLY, WHY DOES HE THINK WE ARE FOOLS, WHO WOULD NOT WANT TO EXAMINE HIS PLANS FIRST? WE WOULD NOT CHANGE FOR CHANGE SAKE PLEASE.

How many people will waste their time and money reading this article which is full of forged figures and idiotic contentions? It was just written to attempt to defend Nana Addo who was strangely campaigning in France.
