Can anyone identify the problem? and maybe suggest a cure.

Looks like bird shit to me?

No, I could have identified that without calling for help.
It's a white fluffy growth of some sort.

Scale insect.

Agree, Scale Insect at the breeding stage. Look at the stems (and probably
leaves midribs) and you will find small brown scales clinging to the plant.
These are insects that suck the sap so are best removed either by hand or by
spray.
