One must have the courage to do what needs to be done. Blessings to the president.
What do you mean ? Do you think he will refuse to supply the raw material ? 😂 that’s just a drama they’re playing they put him as a leader in Ghana do your search first he’s their puppy 🐶
AFRICA IS THE POWER HOUSE OF THE WORLD, THE CHINESE SAW THIS AND PARTNERS WITH US AFRICA. EACH AFRICAN COUNTRY NOW NEEDS TO CLOSE ITS DOORS TO EXPLOITERS. GOLD, DIAMONDS, FLOWERS, COCOA, COLTAN, TEA, COFFEE, FRUITS, BASICALLY EVERYTHING. THE REST OF THE WORLD WILL SOON RESPECT OUR MOTHERLAND AND KISS OUR HANDS. PEACE, LOVE N UNITY TO ALL MY AFRICAN STATES, LOVE FROM KENYA 🇰🇪
I like this guy. Hope that Ghana will prosper under him.
It already has been :)
But if you have a president like mahama he will sell it he doesn't understand politics he just wants to make money any how, he sold the Tema port for a peanuts 🤔
He is our worst president ever
Go read Abt Ghana's economy now and the nepotistic style of governance he is presiding over
The level of corruption that has engulfed his government and the nation as a whole
😂😂😂. The facial expressions of the Swiss officials. Priceless!
Switzerland will be fine. They can import cocoa from other countries. As for Ghana though; what good is having an exportable resource if you are not going to export it to bring in revenue to your country? Creating a trade deficit just to make a point? Ghana may be making this move because they feel confident that the investment from China will make up for any shortfall. That sounds great until they realize what China's true motivations are. By then, it will be too late for Ghana and most of Africa when China begins its colonization in earnest.
@@KayFabe87 China has already begun its colonisation. What
I understand Ghana is trying to do is to get away from dependency. Why ever not? If they plan it well, they can attract the right investment and become a manufacturer. Why should Africa be condemned to only producing raw materials? The prices these people are often paid for such a valuable commodity are ridiculous. If only the AU could actually tackle this matter. Switzerland and others would be acting better.
@@KayFabe87 agreed

The point of not exporting Cocoa to Switzerland is to produce products from Cocoa within Ghana.
The Chinese will not colonize Africa like the immoral exploitive Europeans that made Africa poor.
The lessons from imperialism were obviously learned. I'm sure Ghana will not allow itself to be exploitive as they are lead by this great President. Ghana should produce finished products such as chocolates themselves to gain more profits.
You did not listen to the content of the video. The president of Switzerland or the representative fell just short of begging for Cocoa because they really need it from Ghana. Switzerland desires huge deposits of Cocoa therefore they will not be okay!
Ghana needs to be self reliant and should deal with a new international trading partner such as the Chinese because the Europeans proved to be the worst thing that happened to Africa in making it poor through colonialism.
🤣🤣🤣
👏👏 We need great leaders like the president of Ghana in Africa
There body languages summarizes how they perceive Africa.A place where they can extract our natural resources for a few dollars and they sell the products at high profit. Africa need more leaders like this man. Is time we take control and ownership of our resources for the benefit of Africa. Well done
I believe Switzerland actually pays for the cocoa they import from Ghana. You act as if they take it by force. What good is having a resource to export if you are not going to actually export it in return for payment? That is how you end up with a trade deficit. Not very beneficial for your country.
Or negotiate better trade agreements? Switzerland will just turn to the Ivory Coast and Ghana will suffer
Yes, it's crazy how obvious they are
What an amazing president 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾so proud greetings 🇺🇬🇺🇬
This fake don’t believe what he said no action only talk
He is the last folks president in the entire African continent when mugabe and gaddafi left
I love the strength of my Ghanaian brother, Africa should never be represented by weak leadership, bowing leaders to the West empire.
She was so disrespectful, bullish and entitled in nature. Big step from Ghana 👌🏾
He isn't wrong. Good on him if he can pull it off. That's a good step.
I've never seen Nigerian president Buhari speak so eloquently. This man's vision far surpasses the mediocre quality of leadership found in Nigeria.
Likeee, I'm so embarrassed to be part of this country.
Lmao! If you are judging a leader's competency upon how eloquently they converse in English, then you are setting your bar too low, my friend!
Omo I beg, this usually starts a Gh-9ja war on YT. Despite our family squabbles, we're one. Buhari is competent in his own regard.
Disclaimer: I'm from both countries.
Looking at the body language of the Swiss, they don’t like Africa to stand on their own feet I see
Well ghanian have decide to stop selling them their cocoa, no wonder why they would be mad
Every white person doesn't want a black person to succeed or even survive, there are countries in Europe in you are black person like African origin or carribeans they don't want you to have education
Fair trade is no swindle, but European cultures have not dealt fairly with Africa or the African economy. Therefore, Africa must determine a market value which benefits African Peoples first and foremost.....💯💯💯
If it's 4 the people in Ghana big respect!
WHAT A MAN, ALL QUALITIES OF A MAN OF GOD. TO GOD BE PRAISED.
Much respect for you
We need all African leaders to be strong in similar matters
YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!
Now that I think about it the world knows about belgium and Switzerland when it comes to high hand chocolate but... they don't have any cocoa! What about the Ghanaian chocolate?
Facts I’m so happy these African countries are now realising
Keep your Cocoa. South America is even richer in terms of natural resources.
@@lucabandini4921 Yes, please.Go to South America and take their coltan,gold,uranium,coffee,cocoa,oil etc... and leave us alone.
@@pierrebinyom1747 Ohhhhhhh please. Don't strut. Half of Africa is desert.. You don't have so much resources as you think.
SCARCITY OF WATER.. That's a huge problem you guys have. Not cocoa or coffee..
@@lucabandini4921 Yes yes yes....Can you leave us alone, please ? With our "scarce" resources ?
I mean he is right. Exporting raw goods unfortunately doesn't grow gdp after a certain point
it s about time we did that.
Yes! A move in the right direction!
Kudos Ghana! Shake off those yokes and rise!
She's dealing with the wrong person... Nana Addo is fearless
#AfricaBestPresident
Thank you for putting Ghanaians first.
Wonderful news. I hope he will maintain this policy. Cocoa should not be exported to any colonialists nations rather Ghana should aim to e courage an all African inter regional trading. This is the only system that will enable interdependence among themselves towards any development futures.
Enough Talk let us finally do it for the future Generation of Africans.
They probably are not giving Ghana a fair exchange for Their cocoa & gold to raise their standard of living.
Yes Africa also needs those raw materials as well am in love with Ghanaian president what your doing is the best way to go these people should learn Africa is not their playing field I see time is coming when they have to leave Africa watching from 🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬
Well done
He doesn’t say that explicitly anywhere in the speech. Just aims to manufacture in future with the help of Swiss. Man ain’t cut ties yet ...
Chocolate must be made in Ghana then sold to the world including Switzerland. Period!
👏👏👏👏
Yes please all the way 4rom uganda, East Africa.
Thank you President
I'm here a year later and it appears the president was just bragging 😂
THE BAHAMAS salutes the current LEADERSHIP in AFRICA in general and in GHANA in particular. If countries like QATAR can create millionaire citizens from crude oil I don't see why AFRICANS should not benefit from theirs. Cheers to the MOTHERLAND. Jus sayin
Akufo Addo at his best...anumdwa
Good
there is a japanese/korean chocolate brand called „Ghana“ but isn’t even manufactured in Ghana.
true haha, when i was in japan this was my favourite chocolate, only to find out it has nothing to do with Ghana!
Because the cocoa Comes from Ghana
Fellow Ghanaian's my advice to the President Nana Addo and Top leaders who wants to move our mother land forward,My Question to them all When Tetteh kwakyes STATUE is going to bring up standing besides ONE COCOA POT and remember him with a day of celebration to make make him happy in hid GRAVE, Atta Mills has his STATUE, Kofour, Kotoka,Dr Nkrumah,etc, P'ls the death are always WATCHING. We are not Alone we will NEVER BR ALONE
Look at their faces 😂😂😂
Switzerland will be fine. They can import cocoa from other countries. As for Ghana though; what good is having an exportable resource if you are not going to export it to bring in revenue to your country? Creating a trade deficit just to make a point?

The Swiss are in shock. Does anyone know when this is filmed and where Switzerland aims to get it's cocoa now?
Colonisers in trouble 😂
Wow
Excellent
We need great great leaders and business from Ghana! I hope you will create the film Studios in Ghana!
Ghana is ceasing any cocoa exports but will give the west Democracy in return since it's their trademark. Hope the west is happy with this arrangement since it's win win for both parties
Ghana beyond aid ...WAyto go Ghana
Stop praising this man; he same one donating money to France and promising to build a Cathedral in Ghana. Afrika needs its own Paradigm!
When?
Thank you Ghana president 👏
Ghana chocolates are very tasty. Does anyone know where to buy them? I only saw them once at Trader Joe’s.
Is the best chocolate in the world. less sugar more cocoa.
Funny enough 3 years down the lane my country Ghana is struggling to even produce cocoa due to the bad leadership of this man.
Cocoa farm are being sold for illegal mining activities and almost all water bodies in part of Ghana has been destroyed yet this same president has literally done nothing to stop it.
Talk is cheap
Yes! He will export gold,oil and lithium instead.
paul kagame ,an this gentleman here ghana president are the to best in africa
💪🏿💪🏿🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾
They were not happy to hear an African Leader with Balls!!
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
I can only hope Ghana has anti-corruption measures in place to prevent the pilfering of resources by those who hold political power.
Where are the factories to Process the chocolates...Cocoa Processing Co. is now breeding....talk they say is cheap
Dear,
This was said about a year ago. Good vision 👏 👌and a smart move if this idea could be realized. However, up till today, immigration borders are not yet removed from the "ECOWAS" country members to help with free movement of religional economic development in ECOWAS countries. Why Mr. President?
Do ECOWAS Leaders pay lip services to their fellow countrymen?
Thanks 😊.
Chocolate is more about marketing than quality.
You may have the raw materials to produce quality garment such ask LV, Gucci, but the marketing might take years and loads of money.
Sure he is a good politician with his words, national pride can always earn political powers. Even the empty ones. Foolproof.
Nice idea if it wasn’t just talk ..Fast forward to 12 months later here we are cap on hand to the IMF depreciation of the Cedi and a controversial debt exchange proposal.
There will be a lot of jobs if africa produce there own.
Well. South Americans will be more reasonable.
He needs to also bring jobs to the African people.
Sanction the sanctioners. You don't need them. They need you
All talks weren't fruitful. This President end up selling even more than the country could produce. Now the country is seeking for IMF bailout. Talk is cheap they say.
Well well now, I guess that's the end of swiss Chocolate huh !
Pls guide South Africa
Now that Ghana will criminalize homosexuality with 10 years in prison, this plan is over before it starts. Expect a boycott of these chocolate bars in every western country. Who's laughing now?
Instead of banning cocoa exports, Ghana instead should produce better chocolates
Ghana has better pure and organic chocolates. They are very popular in Japan and South Korea. Probably you just commented without knowing or even tasting Ghana chocolate.
The headline and context of this video is misleading. The President of Ghana, Nana Akufo-Addo has not been to Switzerland since February, 2020. This kind of reportage only gives rise to fake news. The recent event the President of Ghana was engaged in that had anything to do with Cocoa was the State of the Nation Address about a week ago. Whatever is the intention behind this publication will not stand because there are still discerning audience online.
Bad idea. You don’t have to stop export to develop your own manufacturing.
a fix bam
We can now say goodbye to the best Swiss chocolate =(
Ghana is focused on developing industrial prosperity of its people.. But Nigeria seems to have lost focus. Now she is lost on cows, herds and farmers wars with the new industry of school children kidnapping,.aapparently.
See amerco ur will lose money because of africa u live good
good thing Switzerland sources the majority of their cacao from Ivory Coast anyways... Business is business
Because he wants us buy African choccie bars?
Dream on.
Let's see, I can have chocolate made in Switzerland in clean, sterile, precise laboratories or chocolate made in Africa... Good luck selling your Ghanaian Chocolate
Switzerland will be just fine with or without cocoa from Ghana, whereas Ghana is sabotaging itself by not exporting a product that actually has value to countries willing to buy it. How does this even remotely benefit Ghana? People are acting as if Switzerland is taking the cocoa by force as opposed to paying for it. If Ghana and Africa in general think that antipathy towards European nations is somehow beneficial, then Ghana and the other African nations need to prepare to bow to their Chinese masters in the near future.
Agreed, but they will learn.....If Ghana wanted to grow, the govt needs to help in the increase in infrastructure to support this manufacturing sector. Have to walk before you run...Ghana is still crawling. Has South Africa done anything with itself since being woke? Nope, all down the drain. This will be rinse, and repeat. This mega production will not happen overnight. These politicians have no idea about business, and how things run. They may have altruistic intentions, but naive on implementation. Its cool to be anti-Europe, but the Chinese are whispering sweet nothings in their ear. China on the other hand, can buy the chocolate, and be a threat, and i am sure this is up their sleeve. On the flip side, the Western view of raping your neighbors for resources is only going to go so far. This would have continued to work, but with China's economic growth; that business model is failing. China has secured Australia's neighbors, and buying out key European companies, and technologies, and giving Africans the hope of economic freedom, while enslaving them with public works projects. When China is done with them, Africa they will wish they will have the option to stand on stage, and talk smack. China is priming Africa to be China 2.0 as its middle class is rising. Again what do i know, i am a keyboard warrior.
@@cheezeball6109 Africa can never and ever be ruled again
@@sportplus9645 Its happening now,...open your eyes!
It’s the best decision for Africa . Maybe it won’t be easy but it’s very possible .
South Corea was a very poor country before , way more poor than the actual Ghana , so it’s not impossible at all . Things should start now .
It won’t be the advantage of course of those Americans or Europeans country at all , that’s why they are afraid . But it will happen and it’s starting .
China and Russia will trade with Africa
This guy is deceptive and wicked! All hes saying is Ghana will produce cocoa. He says nothing about stopping export to the swiss! Most of the speech has nothing to do with cocoa!
Now if I reply you calling the president deceptive, TH-cam will be angry at me and give me a warning.
Respect your president.
He is AMAZING! 💚 ...his wife is a total hottie, too. I hope she knows I mean no disrespect. I am just excited to see Ghana leading the...well...you know...
Don't trust Akuffo Addo. He will renege on his promise. He is a liar and not to be trusted. He ought to resign
The whole of Africa should stop all trade with Europe until they pay for what they stole and there crimes to our ancestors.no cocoa no gold no uranium especially france ..let them find it in Europe..
Yeah but switzerland never had any colonies so what about them?
