President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has thrown a subtle jibe at the Paramount Chief of the Aflao Traditional Area regarding an abandoned E-block Community Day Senior High School in his area.
The Chief, Torgbui Adzonu-Gaga Amenya Fiti V issued a four-month ultimatum to the government to complete the abandoned school which was built under the regime of Ex-President John Mahama.
Torgbui Adzonu-Gaga Amenya Fiti V made this demand among others during a tour of the Volta Region by Minority members on Parliament's Education Committee.
Reacting to the Chief's request, President Nana Akufo-Addo assured his government will continue the projects started by the former President.
However, the President didn't take it lightly that the Chief would issue an ultimatum to the government, so humorously replied that the Chief should ''complete the project himself'' if he is feels frustrated.
''Is he the one going to give the Minister of Education ultimatum?'', he questioned.
He added; ''For some of the projects, definitely, we will ready ourselves and complete them.''

@ISAAC. Apologize to who? Did you listened to the so called chief before making that statement? Is a chief makes it clear that he is a member of NDC and start giving ultimatum to NPP ministers what do expect them to tell him? Mahama told Ashantis that even if he uses GOLD to construct their roads they won't be grateful, was that not an insult and can the same Mahama also make that comment at the Volter region?
Sad we still rave and ***barred word***. Presidents have terminal periods so project initiatives should have timelines. U put structures anywhere knowing u could or not finish. Now another government shd complete them so u take credit? Thought Afloa in essence has an MP? When volta give 100% to a particular party with the tacit support of togbe. Why not question Mahama on non completion of same but give ultimatum to a government u nver support?
Gabage in gabage out simple answered R
THIS IS NO GOOD RESPONSE. WOULD YOU HAVE RESPONDED TO ASANTEHENE OR OKYEHENE IN SAME MANNER? MAHAMA DID SIMILAR THING TO KUFFOUR WHEN KUFFOUR SAID MILLS GOVERNMENT SHOULD NOT USE A SLEDGE HAMMER TO KILL A FLY, WHEN KENNEDY AGYEPONG WAS ARRESTED. RESPECT MUST BE ACCORDED TO EVERYONE.
This is NPP for you. They think they are more human than others and have no respect for them. Can Nana Addo say this to a sub chef in Ashanti? Time will tell.
Good one there Mr President. This attention-seeking, d1$honest chief who for obvious reasons has taken leave of his diminished senses will sing the praises of JDM and NDC in spite of the laudable interventions you and your government have put in place. I guess there are many children in his village who have and are benefitting from free education. With shal1ow minds like this chief how on earth is the clamour for a second chamber of parliament consisting of chiefs materialise.
Excellent Response Mr President. Belly full chiefs like this chap are not objective. 29 years of his region voting the NDC into power, is he happy with the outcome for him to issue an ultimatum. Yawa chief
Like hell he will, was your chief asleep when other projects was left by the previous government, This is a man who has balls
HMMMM, IT IS NOT YOUR FAULT, IF IEC HAS NOT MANUPULATED THE RESULT IN YOUR FAVOUR,I DON'T THINK YOU WILL BE TALKING BY HEART.KINDLY APOLOGIZE TO THE TO THE PEOPLE OF AFLAO AND TOGBE FITI.
