A member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Communications Team, Akbar Yussif Rohullah Khomeini, has dismissed a proposal by the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) for the establishment of a Rice Development Board, describing it as unnecessary and overly bureaucratic.
Speaking on JoyNews’ AM Show, Mr. Khomeini said the proposal adds nothing new to efforts already being pursued by the government and the Ministry of Food and Agriculture, insisting that the creation of another institution will not solve Ghana’s long-standing challenges in the rice sector.
