The Bank of Ghana (BOG) has no Eastern Regional headoffice. The BOG must ask for land from the King of Akyem (Okyehene) to construct this building. I don´t believe that the BOG has accurate data of the economic activity in the at least 12 Akyem districts which make up more than half the population on the region. The GDP and GNI of these Akyem districts are very high. They stem from:
Gold mining
Diamond mining
Cocoa
Oil Palm (the largest in West Africa)
Timber
Software development
etc
The money supply and capital in the at least 12 Akyem districts are wholly inadequate. BOG must remove impediments to the setting up of rural banks in these districts and encourage ADB and GCB to open branches in these districts.
The government must further ensure that wholly owned Ghanaian banks, including rural banks, get at least 80% of the banking revenue.

This very crime against cocoa farmers has been going on for a long time.A lot of cocoa buying clerks build palatial houses and cars from the work they do and where do they get the money from? They steal the cocoa beans through the manipulation of the weighing scales and then sell the cocoa beans to the Cocoa Marketing Board.How can such a crime encourage the youth to enter cocoa farming?Cocoa buying clerks caught committing such an offence must be severely punished.They must be jailed and any property acquired confiscated.My advice to farmers is that they should weigh their cocoa before sending them to the cocoa buying centres for sale.
