If H E Nana Akufu Addo wants to use Mr Akoto as his agric minister then we are in biiiig trouble. Massa, why is organic food more expensive than GMO foods? The answer is obvious. The toxic food is cheaper. Ghana can earn more from organic food. We have only one problem when it comes to food and that is transport. More than 60% of food grown in this county gets rotten in farms became of lack of transport. Don't sit there and tell me what you don't know Mr Akoto. If you intend to profit from GMO think again!
Kennedy said he does not want any post because he new he won't get any ministerial position.Ken can't read, he doesn't speak good English.Akuffo Addo is good at setting new Ministries,let hope he set Ministry for Akan Language then Kennedy will be appointed to head that Ministry.
Peacefmonline haba. This one too you couldn't get it right? This platform isn't for some village folks ooo. Kokofu isn't a nominee for that ministry. A voltarian was nominated so please check your facts Wai.
Hmmmm So nothing for Hon. Francis Addea-Nimo. Maybe Nana has a different plan for him. This man involved himself so much in the campaign. He was all over in the rural areas.
@ check, Kennedy himself has said he dont want any post due to his businesses and also due to his underground investigation he does on the corrupt officials if appointed he can not monitor them well.
oh why kennedy Agyapong no get post
This is lazy journalism. Check the list and find the errors. Is Kokofu a nominee? Is Cecilia Dapaah the Transport minister?
