    That motherfucker who lives in New York should advocate for creation of a New State out of New York

  • Gonnagetcha 6 years ago

    Oh, hello. It's mr idiot ahoofe with his gibberish again. His obsession with trokosi will be his undoing. As people choke on their words, so will ahoofe choke on trokosi.

  • Kweku 7 years ago

    1. Prof Lungu does not write single sentence comments.

    1. Prof Lungu dislikes Okoampa and never reads his articles. He won't comment on ...

  • Gonnagetcha 6 years ago

    You seem to know prof. Lungu well. Are you perchance one and the same. Me thinks so.

  • Kwame Okoampa-Ahoofe, Jr., Ph.D. 7 years ago

    Prof. Lungu, you may not know this, but it was your idol, President Nkrumah, who split Western Asante from Asante Region proper and made it Brong-Ahafo region. Was this wise for a champion of African Unification? You be the j ...

    Well stated Kwame, and I couldn't have answered it any better - way to go.

  • Prof Lungu 7 years ago

    You, Kwame Okoampa-Ahoofe, Jr., Ph.D., wants us to know you know the history. Looks to us the import of that history is completely lost to you.

    Do you know what it takes to be narrow minded? You have no idea. They would write sensible articles for baboons like you to read and get sense.

  • Jame 7 years ago

    Any president or government who tries to create any region is divisive and not a unity-oriented leader to bring Ghanaians to together. If you want geographical development for a certain area in Ghana, you create a district or ...

    On point

  • kwame 7 years ago

    why not divide Ashanti region.
    is Volta Region bigger than Ashanti? we know your agenda and it'll not work.

  • Kwaku 7 years ago

    Well said kwame, he should create another region from ashanti region instead cos it's bigger and full of garbage pride !!!!!!!

  • Citizen 7 years ago

    The agenda is to entrench government of the people by the people, that's democracy. Give the people the opportunity to decide and pursue their development agenda. It's a great agenda which shall surely work. Nobody can march ...

    ADMINISTRATIVE OR MUNICIPAL DISTRICTS ARE FAR BETTER THAN CREATION OF REGIONS.UNLESS THE ADVOCACY IS PURELY ON POLITICO-TRIBALISM.

  • PAUL GBAGBLADZA 7 years ago

    Is this idiot a professor? I can't believe this. The right region to be split is Ashanti Region. It is the biggest. Adansis want freedom. Kumawus also want freedom. Stupid Okoampa. Think before you write

    You left Biakoye out of the districts that will form the Oti Region? Was it deliberate?

  • KAB 7 years ago

    Okoampa doesn't know many of the things he talks about. He doesn't know a thing about Ewes. He doesn't know where Biakoye is and who constitute that region. He thinks HSG is fighting for autonomy for Volta Region. That is not ...

    This is a stupid article with no basis. Who in the region told u that the names you mention are the brain behind the agitation. The people of Volta are one people and we prefer to live in that harmony.

    'We prefer to be the one people we have been'. Dela, unfortunately I'm not sure this is entirely true. Those of us who want our own Oti Region created don't feel that so-called oneness. Our Ewe neighbours have this sense of s ...

    I agree with the sentiments that this "PhD man" MUST be in Ghana to help. But there is no reason to verbally assault him because he expressed a "distasteful opinion". Let civility guide our discourse.
