This is what happens when people want to stick to barbaric cultures and traditions at all cost. How did Koobi come about. Our elders of old wanted to preserve these commodities for a long time, that is why they resorted to the use of salt to preserve fish. I get irritated when I meet Ghanaians, especially the useless academicians, who fall head over heels to taste soups which have the repulsive odour of Koobi. Some also want to have the salty taste of this rotten fish at the peril of their kidneys. I am using the word rotten because Koobi is not the choicest of fish the fisherman brings to the market. In fact most fishermen who bring koobi to market don't even eat it in their homes. Koobi is gotten from tilapias that have died and are almost getting rotten in water. Some of them die due to the inability of the fishermen to go an inspect their traps in time. Some also die due to natural enemies like electric fish. These are the rotten fish fishermen salt and bring to the market as koobi. Why should Ghanaians risk their health because of this rotten fish.

Ghanaians will use anything to make money, even if it is likely to kill people. I have been to Ghana several times and seen people selling "Red Snapper" that has been coated or coloured with RED DYE at the traffic circle or Danquah Circle at Osu and also along the Beach road or the Nungua-Teshie road between Accra and Tema.
There are so many "cruel & wicked " people in Ghana so please let the Professor do his job. He can help so many Ghanaians and prevent several premature deaths in Ghana.
