Emmanuel Sarpong Owusu-Ansah thanks for the article, but a cursory look at the articles writen by the named above confirms one thing. With the exception of Clement all the other NDC writers write to attack Akufo Addo as an i ...

unfortunately this infantile attempt of equating blame is the most destructive of all as a grave injustice is being done to the innocent . the motives and timing of kpegah are most suspect and seemingly very malicious. no mat ...

I AM 1/2 EWE AND 1/2 AKAN. AM FIGHTING AGAINST MYSELF. FOOLISH FOOLISH FOOLISH HEADING.
MOTHERFUCKER, YOU ARE NOTHING BUT A TOGOLESE TROKOSI. FOOL!
If you are an investigative journalist, then you must give the right colour to things and tell the truth. You are writing about articles which all of us have read and understood and don't have to depend on you for the truth. ...

I was in Nana's corner until he said his certificates are missing! From the beginning, I thought he was rope-a-doping and would spring a surprise and nail Kpegah and others in the end with an embossed certificate.

NO EWE IS AT WAR WITH AKANS. We, Akans are our own enermies, we tend to look down on this humble, god fearing BUT VERY PRINCIPLE group of FEARLESS PEOPLE. I've live among them and know what they are capable of. What we akans ...

Listen to this idiotic trokosi calling himself AKAN. You really have to be stupid to pull this elementary prank.
if it possible to choose one's lineage and ancestary I would gladly choose to be an ewe thousand and over times. It is this sort of attitude I alluded to earlier on that the less written about them the better.
WE DON'T WANT YOU IN OUR REGIONS
I don't think you're an Ewe.
Hi, Amankwa, don't reply to incendiary articles if you want to make sense. Some people come here for virulent exchanges of insults. Fortunately, Ghanaweb does not represent Ghana.
What is Ewe men good at? Akans have no time to fight these group of primitive Ghanaians. The only evil thing Ewe men are good at it; is to fuck their own sisters, nieces,daughters. Akans are not at war with these beings. I am ...

Another empty head. Boring
That is very interesting. When Ewe men are boring, they fuck their own daughters, sisters and nieces. That is what you are best at it.
Stupid heading!
Hypocrites: Is there any reasonable Ghanaian who does not know that Ewes are responsible for the problems and pains of Akans? How many innocent Akans have they not killed including our former heads of state and the judges? Wh ...

Many thanks for your article.Shame on Bokor, Okoampa and Sangaperee.
This is a great piece for somber reflection. We must be more tolerant of one another even when we need to vehemently repel unjustified attacks from others.

Please cut the shit.Akuffo Addo does not represent Akans.He may represent Asante/Akyem and that is his own business but never Akans.He only won in Ashanti and Akyem and not in other Akan areas.
Kpegah too does not represent Ewes. His suit is not being pursued on behalf of Ewes. The man is following his own agenda. No Ewes have asked him to do what he is doing. I hear even the NDC is not supporting him.
And though I identify with the writer's intention to foster peace between Ewes and Akans, his heading for this article is most misleading! It naturally led to his reductionist approach to seeing the commentators on this case ...

Andy, Kpegah's court resolve has nothing to do with party affiliations. Kpegah must have his own bone to pick with Akufo-Addo, and making inferences and deduction one sees a long-awaited and hidden personal agenda that must h ...

You may be right that Kpegah's suit is personal between him and Akufo-Addo and may not have anything to do with parties. The rumours I have heard is that Kpegah is frustrated that he is not getting any help from NDC in this m ...

If you know Francis Kpegah well, you will know that he is a strong anti Akan. The man simply hate Akans from his days as a judge in Kumasi. Everybody who worked close to him knows that.
This is about two individuals not two tribes.lets get the facts and stop this nonsense.When Nana Konadu challenged Akuffo Addo was it Ashanti's against Akyems?.Stupid fool.

DO NOT LIVE AMONG AKANS THEN
This headline is really really misleading and dangerous.
Akufo-Addo has had his fair share of problems in his life.
He was kicked out of Oxford University for smoking dope, so he did not include it on his CV.
Since then it has been going wrong all along.
He was admitted into Le ...

madness at its best. who told you that Ewes are at war with Akans. Are you hallucinating or what? It you want a caption to attracts readers attention think of something better.

I read the articles written by Bokor and Okuampah. Why import tribe into this case at all. This is simply a tango between two individuals.You know? Akuffo Addo deserves what is happening to him. We need people like Kpega to t ...

THIS IS A BALANCED AND AN OBJECTIVE WRITE-UP. WE NEED JOURNALISTS LIKE U TO SAVE OUR DEAR COUNTRY.KEEP IT UP AND WRITE OFTEN SO THAT NATION WRECKERS DO NOT OVERPOWER US.
My bro I share ur sentiments, if our elder generation have issues they shd deal with it at their level and stop poisoning the minds of innocent youth with unnecessary tribal spats, At least they owe us that !
EWES are NOT at war with AKANS !
It IS Kpegah vrs Akufo Addo. It is that simple!!How many Ewes say Akufo ADDO is an impostor and banza Lawyer ???Fool.
After 56 years of our independence, it is unfortunate that some Ghanaians still play tribal cards.
