The General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Justin Kodua Frimpong, has said many Ghanaians are dissatisfied with the government’s handling of cocoa pricing.
Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen show, Mr. Kodua Frimpong stated that the frustration among farmers and sections of the public stems from what he described as the NDC government’s approach to determining cocoa prices.
He urged government spokespersons to adopt a more measured and respectful tone when addressing the matter, stressing that the issue requires reassurance rather than political exchanges.
According to him, the NPP is not engaging in propaganda but is instead raising legitimate concerns about the welfare of cocoa farmers.
He maintained that the party will continue to speak on cocoa-related matters, insisting that the concerns of farmers must be addressed in a way that reduces tension and restores confidence in the sector.
“Ghanaians are upset about how the NDC is handling cocoa pricing. The government should recognize the anger of the people. Government spokespersons should adopt a more serious and respectful tone. The NPP is not using propaganda regarding this issue, so the government shouldn’t give that impression to Ghanaians. Instead, they should communicate in a way that calms the farmers. The NPP will continue to address cocoa matters,” he said.
