Mr. Assamoi Yao Oga, Maire, the District Chief Executive for Wawa 1 in the Republic of Togo, has described Ghana’s political stability as the most peaceful and best in the sub-region.

He said before the coming of Europeans, our forefathers had their own ways of living as Africans and this must be protected.

He said Ghana and Togo shared a common boundary and do things in common, adding "we are brothers and sisters.”

Mr. Oga, who led a two-man delegation from the  Republic of Togo to witness  Ghana’s 65th Independence Day parade at Kadjebi in the Oti Region, said Ghanaians should shun the blame game at the slightest opportunity because the forebears of the country persisted in the independence struggle and liberated the Gold Coast from colonial rule.

He was also full of praise for the school children for their show of talent and skills during the parade.

Mr. Wilson Agbanyo, the Kadjebi DCE, appealed to the schoolchildren to emulate the tenacity of Dr. Kwame Nkrumah to serve as driving forces to success in all their endeavours.

He said they needed to persevere and resist all odds if they wanted to succeed in life.

He also advised them to show gratitude to their parents and teachers for modeling them to be responsible citizens.

The DCE also called on the teachers to avoid absenteeism and see their students as their own children and trained them to be good and responsible adults.

Mr. Seth Seyram Deh, the Kadjebi District Director of Education, advised parents and guardians to invest in their children’s education for a better tomorrow.

He said they ought to provide their wards with their school needs such as uniforms, shoes, books and other learning materials since the government could not do everything for them.

Present were Mr. Bosiade Kodjo Francois, Maire for Wawa 2, Engineer Yao Gomado, MP for Akan, Nana Kwaku Dua II, and Krontihene of Kadjebi Traditional Area, among others.
