COCOBOD Funds Benchema-Adwofua Cocoa Roads With $43M.
Cocoa for decades has been the bench rock of Ghana’s economy with the effort of cocoa farmers across the nation.
However, cocoa farmers in Ghana including the western north region after harvesting cocoa find it difficult to transport cocoa beans from various farms to sheds.
In the Western North Region, a total of Forty-Three (43) Million Dollars is being used for the construction of Benchema to Adwofua cocoa roads in the Bia East District.
The cocoa road project is being funded by the COCOBOD.
According to the Chief Executive Officer of COCOBOD, Joseph Boahen Aiddo, the Benchema-Adwofua cocoa roads are important to the Ghana Government and COCOBOD because it’s linked through major cocoa producing communities.
