Nkoko Nkitinkiti has now become protein for NDC executives – Afenyo-Markin

Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin has criticised the implementation of the government’s Nkoko Nkitinkiti initiative, alleging that the programme has been turned into a benefit for governing party executives rather than serving its intended beneficiaries.

Speaking during debate on the 2026 Mid-Year Budget Review in Parliament, the Minority Leader claimed that the poultry programme had deviated from its original purpose and was being mismanaged.

The Effutu Member of Parliament accused the government of failing to ensure that the programme delivers meaningful support to ordinary Ghanaians, particularly those who were expected to benefit from increased poultry production and access to affordable protein.
