Volta chief declares victory for Akufo-Addo Togbe Kwaku Apasu, the chief of Nyive in the
Norvisi Traditional Area of the Volta Region, has
declared his support for the flag bearer of the
New Patriotic Party (NPP), Nana Addo Dankwa
Akufo-Addo, saying the latter would win the
presidential slot in the November polls.
“Nana, I foresee you to be the next president of
the Republic of Ghana in the November polls.
Ghanaians need you; and so by the grace of God,
you will win massively.”
Togbe Apasu made these remarks when addressing a
gathering of mourners, including the NPP leader
and the National Executives of the party at
Odumasi-Krobo in the Eastern Region last Saturday.
The occasion was the funeral of the late Emmanuel
Tetteyfio Adjasa, father of Robert
Tetteyfio-Adjasa, the National Democratic Congress
(NDC) faithful who led over 1,800 (NDC) members to
join the New Patriotic Party.
According to the chief, who rules in the border
town of the Ho Central constituency, the NDC
drafts citizens from Togo to write their names in
the Ghanaian voter register and vote for the party
during national elections.
“Nana, I can promise you that as for this year,
I won’t allow the NDC to register the Togolese
in my area again. I have formed a special task
force of over 200 men who will see to that. In
2012, the NDC rigged the elections in my area, but
this time around, I will never allow that.
“The NDC government has failed Ghanaians; they
have been deceiving we the Voltarians, but this
time around, we will vote for you. I will lead and
campaign for the NPP,” Togbe Apasu assured.
He called on the security agencies to set up
taskforces along the borders to prevent foreigners
from entering the region to vote.
The chief, who rules over 3,000 people, further
posited that Nana Akufo-Addo is a visionary leader
who can transform Ghana better because the NDC
administration has mismanaged the economy, which
has made life unbearable for Ghanaians. Source - Daily Guide
