Chairman of the National Development Planning Commission (NDPC), Dr Nii Moi Thompson, has called for a critical review of the relevance of the Ghana Cocoa Board (COCOBOD), arguing that the institution may have outlived its usefulness in Ghana’s economy. Speaking at a lecture on infrastructure and development planning at the Ishmael Yamson & Associates Business Roundtable 2026, he said cocoa no longer occupies the dominant position it once held in the country’s economy, making it necessary to rethink the structure used to manage the sector.
