The opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) says a future NPP government under the leadership of Dr Mahamudu Bawumia will not reduce the producer price of cocoa once it is announced.
Chairman of the NPP Policy Committee on Agriculture of the party, Dr Isaac Yaw Opoku, said the party remains committed to protecting the interests and livelihoods of cocoa farmers across the country.
Speaking at a press conference at the NPP headquarters on Sunday, August 9, 2026, Dr Opoku said the party would continue to advocate policies that ensure cocoa farmers receive fair returns for their produce.
He said an NPP government led by Dr Bawumia would maintain the producer price of cocoa once it had been announced, stressing that farmers should not be made to bear the consequences of policy or market-related challenges.
