Dr. Michael J.K. Bokor cunningly avoided mentioning the known fact that Ewes have been the ethnic group in Ghana that mostly votes according to the dictates of their tribal warlords regardless of any national issues. Their leaders have misled them for long, but there are signs that they would vote against tribalism and NDC in the next general election because the common people have seen the light.
Ewes have always condemned the overthrow of Ghana's first communist dictator, and yet kick against removal of Kotoka's name from the airport in the nation's capital because he was an Ewe. On the other hand, if it were the name of Ankra or Afrifa, charlatans like Michael Bokor would have been writing tones of tribalistic articles to support removal of the name from that airport. Again, when Yeboah killed Kotota in the failed counter coup, Ewes immediately pointed an accusing finger at Afrifa, saying that he had masterminded the killing in order to take the top job from Kotoka because he was an Ewe.
As a result of these conspiracy theories cemented by tribal bigotry, the Progress Party won overwhelmingly in all the regions of Ghana in 1969 except the Volta region. They later tried to justify their action by saying that Victor Owusu had accused them of being inward looking. For them, that statement justified all their actions including removal of the newly elected government. Although the region benefited tremendously from the PP government in terms of development projects within that short period, they still went ahead and overthrew it unjustifiably and plunged the country into the abyss.
It will surprise you to know that the coup planning started immediately after the PP government was sworn into office and that had nothing to do with what it did or did not do in office. Ewes planned it and lured Acheampong into it by offering him the leadership position. Busia's government made Acheampong the Army Commander and he was now being asked to betray the trust, so the reward must be big enough. The coup plotters also realized that he was the only obstacle in their way and they willingly made him the leader in order to reach their goal. Unfortunately, this scenario was repeated in 1981 when Rawlings deceived Akatapore and others to betray Dr. Liman paving the way for his second coup.
Those who planned and executed the 1972 coup were all Ewes, and they were Major Agbo, Major Baah, Major Solomey, and the rest of the Ewe Majors that constituted the so-called National Redemption Council after the coup. Also, when Rawlings used the tribal card to occupy Ghana in the 80s and 90's, the country was virtually an Ewe Kingdom, and it will be naive and even dishonest for a so-called intellectual like Michael Bokor to believe that Rawlings ever won an election in Ghana freely, fairly and democratically. In fact, he used to steal the verdicts of Ghanaians to remain in power fraudulently.

What position were you expecting to be given to Quashigah? Wasn't the Health Ministry enough? Look, if I have any advice to give to NPP or Nana, I will tell him in plain terms not to waste his time campaigning in the Volta Region because it will be a total waste of time, energy or everything there is.
As if we do not know who Voltarians are. Tweakai. When we talk of people with "herd mentality" it is you and your people. Why? Because, you do not ask question but follow foolishly.
You hate Akans to the core but have you ever think deep and ask yourself why your people in the heart of Kumasi are not being terrorized? There is an enclave called Anloga town and do Ashantis have Ashanti town in the heart of Ho? Think and understand that you and your people are the problem and not Ashantis or Akan per say.

Pelicles, why can't you rise above such petty bigotry?
Do you really really think in your heart and your mind that Ewes, those born before you and living today, hate Akans? Do you even know what hatred is? And do you really know what "herd mentality" is? With this type of mindset, Pelicles, what is the difference between you and the person you're responding to? Are you saying that because you're Akan, that makes you a better human being than him, because he is Ewe? Can't you rise above such childish way of thinking?
Thank goodness your party, NPP, does not have you as an advisor. Akufo-Addo has the right to campaign ALL OVER THE COUNTRY because he is the flagbearer of a national party. Indeed, he should even spend more time in campaigning in areas that he previously performed poorly. That means he should campaign as hard as possible in the VR where his party has two seats in parliament. In an election where the president is decided by the total tally of the national votes, every single ballot will be important, especially when the call is close.
So Akufo-Addo, if he is a true leader, cannot think like you, Pelicles. He cannot think that some Ghanaians hate some other Ghanaians to the core or that some Ghanaians behave with "herd mentality".
Pelicles, you should be ashamed of yourself. I hope you know what shame is as much as you know what hatred is.

Thanks for the correction. I may have been thinking of some other election 100 years ago when PP won two seats in the VR!!! Or 80 years ago when a splinter group from PFP won seats in the region.
But my general point is correct. Akufo-Addo won 12% of the presidential vote in the VR. If he strains himself and ups that to 15% (not an impossibility) it can make a lot of difference in a tight race. That is all the more reason why he should campaign there. If he doesn't, he may get less than even that 12%!
And the most important point is that no serious commentator should be saying things like some tribe hates some other tribe or is envious of them. No matter the provocation, I dare say!

Unlike you, he does not have to wear a mask of verbosity to shield his insecurity and intellectual inferiority. I don't feel sorry for your madness because you have no business taking on an Ewe in the intellectual boxing ring. You are inherently inferior. God does not make mistakes. Sorry.

There is nothing magical or meritorious about having a moronic following Dr. Kwame Okoampa-Ahoofe. What is it about you and your kind of folks that make you act not only irrational but zealously demented when it comes to defending the indefensible?
There is no political party in any nation, industrialized, developing and underdeveloped nations alike, where there has not been turmoil and internal strife when people jockey for party leadership posts. But what separate people with true leadership qualities and zealots with entitlement chip on the shoulder is command of respect that comes with wisdom, principles and moral inner core; the very qualities lacking in Nana Akufo-Addo, your tribesman. Dr. Kwame you live in the USA where the leader of the Democratic party President Obama had been put through hell and back from people within and outside the party but we do not read of killings and or gutter level back stabbing within the Democratic party do you? Nana Akufo-Addo is and remains bad news for the NPP because he comes into political leadership with a trove of skeletal remains and a knack for under reported acceptance of brutality visited on those who stand in his way. You can insult all who peel of the onion off Nana Akufo-Addo's mask but will not negate a flawed leader who is so not cut out to run a pig pen.
