Samuel Torbi, the young cocoa farmer who was visited by President John Mahama as he marked his second anniversary as President of Ghana has said the Presidential visit was a blessing to his life.
The President visited the 2013 National Best Young Cocoa Farmer on his farm in Assin Sienchem in the Central Region, Wednesday January 7 as part of his campaign to encourage young people into farming.
Speaking to 'Starr News' Torbi said the President�s visit will encourage many young people in his area to go into farming.
�First I will like to say his visit is a blessing from God. He promised me some time ago when I went with other farmers to the flagstaff House to thank him for increasing the purchasing price for cocoa, but I thought he didn�t mean it.
�I�m very happy. In my community here, there will be a great change because all the young people will now realise that if they work hard, the president will visit them,� he stated.
