President Mahama understands reality: you can’t drive on a Ghana Card. You can’t carry your cocoa to market on a Ghana Card. You can’t rush a pregnant woman to hospital on a Ghana Card. Ghana needs roads, bridges, schools, and hospitals—real infrastructure that changes lives. That’s why he is focused on the Big Push Project. That is true leadership. That is real wisdom.

“Ever since Tetteh Quarshie brought cocoa seed to Ghana, I have never seen any reduction in cocoa prices before, so what happened?” — A cocoa farmer asked Dr. Peter Boamah Otokunor, Director of Presidential Initiatives in Agriculture and Agribusiness at the Office of the President, why the government was not able to sustain international market prices to avoid the reduction in cocoa prices.

Our Founding Fathers didn’t have stock portfolios. Banning insider trading is one of the most popular, bipartisan issues in Congress, so why can’t we make it happen?

Western Traders Are Crashing Africa’s Cocoa Market West Africa grows the cocoa that feeds the global chocolate industry, but when the market crashes, it is African farmers who are left exposed. African countries cannot continue to produce raw materials while Western traders, processors and chocolate brands control the real value, the pricing and the profit. The cocoa crisis is another reminder that Africa needs stronger regional control, more local processing, African-owned value chains and better protection for the farmers whose labour keeps this industry alive.

Funny how the Netherlands, a country that doesn’t grow plantain, always has it in abundance — but Ghana, where plantain grows naturally, only has it seasonally. Proof that systems, not soil, make the difference!
