Former COCOBOD boss says Acheampong falsely claimed credit for ending cocoa loan reliance.
Former COCOBOD CEO Joseph Boahen Aidoo has accused NPP presidential hopeful Dr. Bryan Acheampong of falsely claiming credit for ending Ghana’s use of syndicated loans to finance cocoa purchases, calling the assertion dishonest and plagiarism.
Aidoo stated the policy, which ended a 32-year reliance on foreign borrowing and enabled cocoa revenues to earn interest, was his initiative, backed by President Akufo-Addo and Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, while Acheampong opposed it and blocked its Cabinet approval.
He accused Acheampong of later submitting the policy without acknowledgment and criticized the public narrative as disingenuous.
Aidoo emphasized the reform’s success in improving financial sustainability and credited its true architects, not those rewriting history for political gain.
El ex jefe de COCOBOD dice que Acheampong reclamó falsamente el crédito por terminar con la dependencia de préstamos de cacao.
