The joint committee of the Council of Elders and the Political Committee of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has warned that the unmitigated persecution of Ewes by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) government is projecting division and chaos in the country.
“We have come to a stage where, as sons and daughters of the Volta Region, we can no longer stand aloof and see our people treated as second class citizens or, in some cases, total strangers in their own country,” said Mr Dan Abodakpi, Chairman of the NDC Volta Regional Council of Elders.
At a press conference in Ho on Wednesday, which was attended by national and regional executives of the NDC, he cited the deployment of military personnel in some border communities in the region.

Efo Dan were you in Ghana when our own people disgrace the supreme court justice who was nominated to the highest court of the land,please come again and don't be use by people who made mockery of you during the last election of the national executive. As a believer of the Ghana are you aware that the borders are close and any one who want to enter do so through the Ghana embassy why won't every body come through Togo to Ghana from all over the world,please. Efo come again.
Mr Abodakpi is a gentleman. He should not be used by a political party to divide and destroy Ghana. Majority of the people of Ghana do not want tribal politics. Kufour an Ashanti from Ashanti royalty won elections in Ghana when it was perceived that an Ashanti can not win presidential election in Ghana because most non Ashantis dislike Ashantis. We loose and win together as one people with a common destiny. Down with tribal politics.
Ghana has come of age to continue to do tribal politics. Unfortunately the politicians know what they get out of it. I only pray that the citizens become aware of this and ignore them. How could an old man like you lead a group to make such a presentation to the populace. We need to grow as a country and project unity instead of using tribal politics to disintegrate us.
Tribal politics by the NDC will only help them to go into extinction. Which will be good for our country. NDC has deceived the people of the Volta Region for too long. They must show us what they have done to develop the region... Nothing. Voltarians must stop voting for this tribalistic and selfish NDC party.
Oh NDC! Why are you doing this to your own country you profess to love? Over the years, you have used this Ewes to try to divide the country. So you can rule and steal. Ewes are scattered all over Ghana living in peace and intermarriage with other tribes, but NDC always speaking as if a particular party hates the Ewes. NDC, you have ruled Ghana more than any political party. Tell us what you have done for the Ewes and by large the Volta Region as compared to other parties that have rules Ghana. You are always using the Ewes to trumpet war and tribal campaigns which has not helped your cause. Stop it now or you are going to disintegrate and will not be relevant as a party again. Repent or you perish. I am done
