Fifty-seven chiefs in the Nkwanta South constituency of the Volta Region, comprising 5 Paramount Chiefs and 52 sub-Chiefs have declared their unflinching and unalloyed support for the 2016 presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party, Nana Akufo-Addo, in this year’s election.
Led by Nana Obonbo Sewura Lipuwura II, Paramount Chief of Nkwanta Akyode Traditional Area, they stated that they have had the opportunity to witness governance under the NPP and NDC over the last 16 years, and are under no illusion that a government led by the NPP represents Ghana’s best hope of offering her citizens progress and prosperity.
The Paramount Chief of Nkwanta Akyode Traditional Area made this known on Wednesday, October 26, 2016, when Nana Akufo-Addo and the leadership of the NPP in the Volta Region paid a courtesy call on him at his palace in Nkwanta.
“Under President Kufuor’s tenure, I can say with all certainty that, all was well with Ghana. There was money in the land and in the pockets of people. However, under President Mahama men are crying, women are crying, the youth and old are all crying,” the Nkwanta Chief lamented.
He continue, “There’s a saying that you visit two markets before one can tell which is the best. We have, indeed, visited two markets over the last 16 years, and we know which is best. We know it is the NPP that can help us.”
With a majority of the youth of Nkwanta unemployed, Nana Obonbo Sewura Lipuwura II endorsed Nana Akufo-Addo’s 1-District-1-Factory policy, adding that “we know you can do it. We have already allocated a parcel of land for the factory to be sited. We know you can do it.”
Akin to the pledge made by Nana Akufo-Addo to create the ‘Western-North’ region out of the Volta Region, the Chiefs of Nkwanta appealed to Nana Akufo-Addo “to create the Oti Region, and site the capital in Nkwanta.”
In concluding, Nana Obonbo Sewura Lipuwura II, reiterated the unwavering support of 56 other Chiefs in the Nkwanta Akyode Traditional Area, praying for good health, wisdom, long life for Nana Akufo-Addo.

Whether u like it or not, Nana Addo is going to be the elected prez of ghana this dec
NPP and their "Alice in wonder land" stories!!! If indeed 57 chiefs declare their support, does that amount to all their subjects supporting you? You go with these "sweet to the ear" stories, carrying these up high and when you are disappointed, it is hard for you to believe and accept, holding the country to ransom!!! You better start living and stop dreaming!!!
NPP pls don't always expose the people who declare their support for you like these chiefs. The NDC bribers will go behind u and bribe them with big cars and cash and other enticing big promises. Pls be smart. the NDC agenda now is to bribe opinion leaders, come out with serious fabrications and punch Nana Addo with his age and illness. but the battle is still the Lord's.... David will surely kill "Goliath" come dec 7. Stay blessed|
I hail from Nkwanta and i can authoritatively say that the chief lied cos all the chiefs under his jurisdiction will not number 10. Nana visited just one paramouncy called the Akyodes neglecting the rest 4 namely The CHALLAS,NTRUBOS ADELES and the KOTOKOLIS. Next time Nana should visit all even if they dont support him
WE THE EWES SAYS NANA ADDO AND NPP HAVE INSULTED US, THIS IS NDC WHO ARE ALWAYS DECEIVING US. PLEASE MY PEOPLE LET US TEACH THIS NDC PARTY A LESSONS. NDC IS A DEMONS PARTY EVEN SEE THE WAY THEY TO RAWLINGS THE FOUNDER.
Where is Kofi Adams and his propaganda machinery? These are chiefs in your own backyard. If you think I am lying, let's ask the people to call in to peace fm. NDC cultivated lies and harvesting agya waadwo!
You guys are the people involve in the fake news spread and u give false news for the chiefs to deny so that u can say Nana is desperate for power and yet we all know the one who is desperate is the one who is doing propaganda is tribalistic politics. Observers are just worried when the see the wind of change blowing. nana b3ba JM twaso
The names of the chiefs pls
With or without the support of the traditional Chiefs from the Volta Region, NPP is winning this elections. Agenda 3-30; three Parliamentary seats and 30%of the popular votes. Let the DOUBTERS keep denying the obvious truth.
NPP always reporting fake news they are luck of campaign strategies they should remember 2008 and 2012 how they spent on time on unnecessary things in stead of door to door campaign.NDC will still win.
