Great read. Thanks for the education. I for one always found the tag of number 9 and sort of form of endearment...like a pet name. I was born in 1983, so the undertones might have changed a bit since the tag's inception. I must ask though, I was once told the tag was derived from a national goal keeper of old from the Volta Region who wore a number 9 shirt. Is there any truth in this? Anyway, thanks to the original poster of the article. More of these please. To all others. This work is this mans opinion informed by his research. If you want to dispute it, that's fine.....but you must back it up with a similarly well informed peice or an even better researched piece. Provide proof where possible. Thanks.

It sound like someone stepping on your foot and when you said that it hurts he goes to ask you why are you here to disturb others. What the writer wrote is not different from the example given above.
People from other tribes in Ghana must respect Ewhes and stop relating to us with such cruel disdain.
A man from Peki called Kofi Ameko was Kwame Nkrumah's armed liberation coordinator against the colonialist, fascists and apartheid. Kojo Tsikata fought in Angola to maintain the territorial integrity of that African continent. Free Alfred Agbeshi Woyome, the persecution and prosecution of Ewhes must stop.

That is not true. The tagging no 9 is because Ewes are tribalistic and discriminatory.
It is often said that they prefer to play to the old football game style of trying to locate the the player who plays no9.
Those days there was nothing like building up the game from behind and so who ever got a ball wanted to balloon it to the striker (no9) to score.
If you are not an Ewe , then you are definitely not a striker and so would not receive a pass from an Ewe person.
This is the origin of the tag No9 and not as the writer seeks to portray.
If you don't mind ask other tribes in the region. When you get into any office in the region, you are greeted in Ewe to determine the position you are playing.
You are treated any how if you cannot produce your no9 Jersey.

Man, read the article well. He wrote
"At independence (March 6, 1957), the Gold Coast colony (with the capital as Accra) was split into Eastern and Western Regions, Northern Territory protectorate and the northern parts of TVT became the Northern Region, the remaining parts of TVT plus Anlo and Tongu local council areas of the Gold Coast became Volta Region."
Did you read that?
He also said Anloga, Keta and even Peki etc were all part of Gold Coast.
Is it because he didn't write "Lower Volta"? The part referred to is far bigger than Lower Volta.
