Former President and leader of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr John Dramani Mahama has stated that the next NDC government will introduce policies that will improve on the Cocoa production.
He described Cocoa as the backbone of the Ghanaian economy and stressed that everything would be done to sustain the industry.
Mr Mahama who was speaking at Sefwi- Debeiso on day two of his Western North tour accused the government of selling fertilizers that were supposed to be freely supplied to the farmers.
He also criticised the government for not increasing the price of Cocoa for two years and assured that the NDC government would increase the price of Cocoa every year when voted into power.
Touching on the free Senior High school programme, he indicated that it was a good policy that had come to stay and that the next NDC government would construct more School blocks to abolish the double track system.
The former President expressed concern about the bad roads in the Western North Region and promised to continue all the Cocoa roads abandoned by the NPP government.
Mr Johnson Aseidu Nketia, General Secretary of the NDC asked party members to work hard in order to ensure the party wins the next general election.
Nana Obenfo Richard Afrani, Debeiso Nifahene, appealed to the former President to provide them with a hospital and upgrade facilities at the Bia Teacher Training College if he wins the upcoming general election.

So lies you want to come back and steal to mess up the things again onaapo airbus
NANA IS GIVING US THE BEST ONES WE DON'T NEED YOUR GOOD ONE FOR ANYTHING .
The NDC is sinking and strangely none of the experienced folks is addressing the issues. Young and naive folks have taken over and all they do is noise making and disrespect to the elderly in society
This does not even qualify as a promise! Good policies for the cocoa sector? Hello NDC? Can't the NDC realize that the party is simply not gelling in her political communication? See what your MPs did this morning. The best way forward for this party is for the very very few fairly good members to regroup under a better brand. The NDC is damaaged. Already Mahama has damaaged the ticket going into 2020. Ah, who should vote for government official 1?
Politicians and promises
Still no message. So you think by simply saying good policies, you will get people to vote for you? Tell us the policies.
Opportunist. Free SHS is a good policy that has come stay. Really!!?? Coming from Mahama? After disparaging the policy for years, and now that you have realised that it is going down well with Ghanaians, you have quickly turned round to say it is a good policy. Since when did you realise that?
THERE WILL NOT BE ANOTHER NDC GOVERNMENT ANY TIME SOON.
look at the pic well. who does he look like ? your guess is as good as mine
So what were you P(NDC) guys doing for the cocoa sector when you were in power for 27 years? Conman talking just to win votes. Good policies is vague. Tell us what your so called good policies are..... Sweet talk with no substance. This Airbus bribeman must never get near the presidency again.
