The Daily Graphic believes the most important agent in the cocoa production chain is the farmer, without whose efforts the cocoa industry would not have developed to its current enviable level globally and therefore everything must be done to boost the efforts of the farmer to the produce the crop. The paper also recalls that a couple of months ago, COCOBOD announced that it had secured $1.3bn (one point three billion dollars) from a consortium of 21 banks, to finance cocoa production and purchases. It is however baffled over where the money is lodged currently. It believes that both government and the Liscensed Buying Companies LBCs, should come clean and tell Ghanaians the real situation on the ground regarding the cocoa money.

The Ghanaian Times finds news of attacks on police officers in the line duty as worrying. Even more horrifying to the paper is when assailants fight tooth and nail to attack police officers, sometimes maiming and or even killing them. The paper believes it is sad that such incidents occur at the time the police are doing all they can to protect citizens. It believes that even though some police officers misbehave from time to time or get involved in acts that are shameful, there is no reason for the savage attacks on these officers. It calls on all stakeholders to ensure that the police are protected and also calls on citizens to desist from actions that inflict harm on the police.
