Gbese Youth in the Greater Accra region have dismissed calls on their chief, Nii Ayi Bonte II, to vacate his stool as he vowed to do if the NDC lost the December 7 elections.
Chairman of the Gbese youth, Nii Annan Agbo, who addressed a press conference said the Gbese Mantse's abdication comments have been misconstrued. During a gathering, largely attended by supporters of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), the chief swore to abdicate his stool if President John Mahama lost the elections.
The enthusiastic Gbese Mantse said President Mahama and the NDC government had done more than enough in terms of projects and deserved the chance to continue with their good works. He was certain the president would win the election and swore he would vacate his stool the president didn't win.
He was speaking during the commissioning of a liquid waste treatment plant at Lavender Hill, a place noted for open air defecation and dumping of human waste into the sea.
But following Akufo-Addo's victory, pressure has been growing on the Gbese Mantse to make good his vow.
The Gbese Youth have stepped in to defend their embattled chief. Nii Annan Agbo was emphatic that Nii Ayi Bonte II has not commited any crime and will not vacate his seat.
He said the chief's position is protected by the constitution and his ascension has been properly gazzetted.
Since he did not force himself on the stool, he cannot be forced out without going through the legitimate processes set out for the destoolment of a chief.
Focusing on the controversial comments, Nii Abgo explained that the chief's comment was not in reference to the national elections.
He said Nii Ayi Bonte II meant that he would abdicate his seat if the NDC and John Mahama lost in his constituency, Odododiodoo.
The NDC candidate Nii Lante Vanderpuye won and John Mahama also won the popular vote in that constituency. In effect, the chief made good his vow to see the NDC win in his own backyard.
The Gbese Youth Chairman warned that the youth are ready to the point of shedding their own blood to defend their chief.
He described persons calling for Gbese Mantse's abdication as miscreants and non-natives of the land who have no locus in the traditional affairs of Gbese.

We all heard what he said. He never said Odododiodo. What kind of Ananse story is this? He was over confident and opened his big mouth to utter those words. Nobody put those words in his mouth. He has to face the consequences.
Nana has never committed on any Chieftaincy issue. Stooo.op fuuuuling. Stuuupid. Asa-wo. Wo ho kan-kan s3 atee. Wo ho Ben. Akuraaa se ni.
No ko fioo ni wobaaye
Please let the Gbese Mantse and Ga Mashie have peace.Stop wasting your time yen akanfo because it will a calamity for you to destool a Ga chief. How could you senseless noisy for nothing people.
@ NAA SHIKA, NANA ADDO DIDN T ASK YOUR CHIEF TO RESIGN, HE WAS THE ONE WHO BROUGHT THIS TO HIMSELF, NANA ADDO HAS BETTER THINGS TO THINGS TO DO
When a leader whether a traditional chief or political office holder lose the respect accorded him by his subjects, is more dangerous than HIV/AIDS. Because the very people you are going to rule are no more respecting you so how can you rule them successfully? Tommy Okine has lost that respect since that dangerous bet and he must go because things are going to get rough for him. These are just the beginning of more difficult times to come.
We should be mindful how we talk much about the destiny of others. Is only God who determines the destiny of everyone of us.
HaaHHHAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAhahahahhhaaa ... How can such an 1DI0T continue to be a chief? He gambled with his stool and lost; ADJANA 1..ADJANA 2 and lost. Only F00L will support this shameful ID10T parading himself as a chief. His pronouncement and statements were clear and precise to the point to be understood. Nobody can throw dust into our eyes because we're not as gullible and sycophants as his so called followers. Had he come out, to show remorse, admit his mistakes and ask for forgiveness Ghanaians wouldn't have a problem Because in a heat of a moment people say thing the would normally wouldn't say in a normal situation. Coming out with this Kwaku Ananse story is even making it worse. We're not kids and gullible as the so called ***barred word*** spokesperson of the Gbese Youth thinks. We to be honest to ourselves and speak the truth when somebody makes a mistake and ask him to do the right thing. What's this BULLSH1T story this 1DIOT is trying to tell us? This is the problem we have in Ghana; nobody tells the truth anymore. Your chief has +SH+1+T+ in his cloth instead of telling him the truth, you're coming out with Kwaku Ananse stories to cover up his mess. Meanwhile everybody can smell his mess. Go to hell and save us the agony of your sycophancy.
Please, kindly forgive Gabse Mantse. Although he should have sincerely apologies. Please, forgive him!!!!! Anybody who is closer to him should tell him to stop that his arrogant and apologies to the chiefs and the Ga state, they will forgive him. This is a lesson to Koku Ayidaho, Ken Agyapong, Kofi Ghana, etc. do not think that nobody can stop you, there is ALWAYS one person who is above someone. Please, forgive him!!!! Thank you.
Nana can go to kyebi if he wants our chief will not step down.
