  THAT VETTING THING IS THERE TO HELP SOME GHANAIANS POCKET UNDESERVING SITTING ALLOWANCES FOR NO GOOD WORK DONE WHATSOEVER.
  
  PRETTY MUCH LIKE PAYING END OF SERVICE PACKAGES TO POLITICIANS EVERY 4 YEARS - NOTHING TO SHOW FOR THOSE PAYMENTS OVER THE YEARS.
  
  GHANA IS BEING BLED TO DEATH BY THE ENTIRE LEADERSHIP.
  
  WE SHALL ALL SINK TOGETHER.

  HOW DARE U ATTEMPT TO TEACH PEOPLE ON HOW TO FRAME THEIR QUESTIONS? DO U WANT THE MINISTER-DESIGNATE TO SAY WHAT YOU WANT TO HEAR? THERE ARE SO MANY THEORIES FOR AND AGAINST GMO FOODS BY VERY LEARNED AND EXTREMELY QUALIFIED PROFESSORS. WHY DO YOU THINK YOUR TWISTED VIEW IS RIGHT FOR GHANAIANS AND SO WE SHOULD TAKE YOUR JAUNDICED ANSWERS? DO YOU KNOW BETTER THAN THESE PROFESSORS? AGAIN YOU YOURSELF CLEARLY INDICATED THAT THERE IS A LACK OF CONCLUSIVE LITERATURE ON THE SUBJECT. DOES IT NOT THEREFORE MAKE SENSE IF DR. AKOTO OR ANYONE ASKS WHETHER WE RECORDED ANY CASUALTIES IN THE U.S. OR ELSEWHERE?
  THESE IDIOTS GO FOR FUNDING FROM SOME IDEOLOGICAL INSTITUTIONS POPULATED BY CRANKS AND MILITANTS AND COME TO POOR AND GULLIBLE PEOPLE IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES TO FEED THEM WITH STUPID AND BACKWARD RESEARCH FINDINGS. SOME OF THESE FINDINGS GO BACK DECADES AND POINT US TOWARDS NOWHERE. THEY ARE SO ARROGANT IN THEIR POSTURES AND BELIEVE THAT THE SUN SHINES FROM THEIR A... FELLOW GHANAIANS IGNORE THESE PROFESSIONAL AND PERPETUAL STUDENTS. MOST OF THEM ARE ONLY HAPPY TO TRAVEL TO CONFERENCES IN EUROPE AND AMERICA JUST FOR THE FUN OF IT. THEY ARE FULL OF GARBAGE. LET US MAINTAIN OUR SANITY HERE AND THINK OF SENSIBLE AND PRACTICAL WAYS OF FEEDING THE GHANAIAN POPULACE. WHO ARE THESE PESTS CALLED FOOD SOVEREIGNTY GHANA? IS IT A REFUSE COLLECTION ORGANISATION OR SOME MUSEUM FOR CHURNING OUT STONE RESEARCH? BE WELL ADVISED THAT GHANA IS THE WRONG PLACE FOR YOU. SHUT UP AND PACK OFF!!!!!!!!

  Wow, Are you paid by "Monsatan" oh my mistake, Monsanto. Do you know how dangerous GMO is? My brother there are mor research and the carcinogenic nature if the Roundup used to spray the GMO crops. Search youtube and there are loads of documentary on GMO. Even though farmers feed their animals in the EU with GM corn and soy, The EU has banned GMO crops from growing in the EU. It is not Science but Pseudo science.
  
  In USA, you have no right to know what you are buying, except if it is organic. Look at how sick and obese USA has become. about 95% of their corn and soy is GM. USA uses about 17% of their GDP on health and they are getting sicker and sicker.
  
  There is research behind this and Monsanto has corrupted any country they go to. Even Obama is no exception. Obama put the scientist of Monsanto to head the FDA so any food which comes out are approved even when it is dangerous to health. This same company brought DDT whch they claimed it was save.
  
  I will not be surprised if your so called minister is in their pockets. No offence. The professors you are talking about are even more corrupt than this politicians. The same corporation fund their research in the universities. GMO is a lie and dangerous. I was so sad when I heard that Ghana want to adopt this corrupt science whilst even California want to ban it. The WHO has published that it is carcinogenic and your darling obama was a lobbyist for Monsanto. They are so big that they can do anything and can go unpunished. Think of cancer, infertility, famine and so many diseases are attributed to this GMO not forgetting DNA changes.
  
  Wake up people
