Chief Urges Minority to Speak for Cocoa Farmers

The paramount chief of Offinso, Nana Dwamena Akenten II, has publicly backed the Minority Caucus of Parliament. He stated his support on Sunday.

The chief has urged the MPs to use their current tour of cocoa-growing areas in the Ashanti Region. They should speak for the farmers who produce Ghana's cocoa.

The Minority MPs were on a week-long visit to these farming communities. Frank Annoh-Dompreh, the Minority Chief Whip, led the group.

This call from the chief highlights the importance of farmers' voices in national discussions about agriculture. These farmers are key to Ghana's economy.

The interaction between traditional leaders and political figures underscores the ongoing dialogue about the welfare of agricultural communities. Their concerns often shape policy discussions.
