We will also see to it that the living condition of teachers are improved”.

He appealed to the DCE to send a message to the President Nana Addo Danquah Akuffo Addo that since there is ‘cocoa roads’ then the incoming COCOBOD Boss should also build Cocoa teachers quarters for cocoa farming communities.
