    Togbe, you just invite one man known as Dr. Kwabena Agyei- to your palace and to the Volta Regional House of Chiefs. Kindly use your position to seriously advice him to stop sparkling and fueling the over 'hundread-year-old' ...

    Mr. Issac Mintah is a VERY LAZY OR IRRESPONSIBLE JOURNALIST. I say so because NO FISHING is done in the towns of the clashes. The Volta Lake, which is employed for fishing activities, lies at least 6 kilometres away from th ...

    I am so glad to see Togbega Afede XIV, President of Volta Regional House of Chiefs, is using his God given wisdom to help solve conflicts and as well as help lead the promotion of investments in Volta Region.

    Why? let those Ayigbe people kill themselves. Ghana will lose nothing if their land is occupied by beasts.

    My brother, if u hav any of such documents can u pls let me hav a copy via j.osei25@yahoo.com. until then i do not agree with u. or, that is what is influencing the Nkonyas to perpetuate such atrocities as killing an elder?

  • Charles A. 11 years ago

    Don't mind Azonto. The Nkonyas are Guans and not Ewes so how can they give land to Ewes living where Ewes live? Who are the strangers here?

  • Nana Yaw III 11 years ago

    Check your history properly. I do not agree with the violence but for the sake of truth, will like to inform you that before the Alavanyos arrived at their current place, the Nkonyas were there. Truth has it that the land o ...

    Trying to pull a fast one huh.

  • Kofi Dadie 11 years ago

    Can you educate me then about myself and what Larteh people, Aburi people Anum people are. Do you speak our Guan language? Can you claim it is not an akan dialect?

  • marian 11 years ago

    We Guans are Akans.

  • Foruwaa 11 years ago

    Thats why the Nkonyas call the alavanyos Oklife fo (meaning tie them up and sell them because the nkonya people who gave them the land used to tie them up and sell them in to slavery. and the Alavanyos said it shall be well o ...

    Kodzo,

    The unjustified "atrocities" are committed by both sides.

    Chack ghanaweb for the past two weeks and you will agree with me.

    Personally, I believe that no killing is justified.

    The truth is there for whoever ...

  • Charles A. 11 years ago

    Yes, I agree with you. The government should confiscate that parcel of land and establish a ranch, agric station or something else. If is made a forest reserve, they will still be shooting each other in the jungle.

  • Nana Yaw III 11 years ago

    The place is hilly so the option of a ranch is not possible without destroying what is left of the forest. An agric station may also not be ideal, unless it is focused on forest conservation, but then you will need forest gu ...

    The findings are probably not being publishedto avoid the me we bo alle speaking people assuming landlord behavior over all others in Ghana.

  • sbrooks 11 years ago

    Nana Yaw your effort at reconciliation is excellent and should form the basis for peace in the area. Just remove the land from both groups since they cannot agree. Turn it into something neutral and for the benefit of all.

  • Kodzo 11 years ago

    A great solution coming from u. so many history on Alavanyo and Nkonya....my first solution is to apply Darwinism(survival of the Fittest)but this may seem genocidal. if the Nkonyas gave the land to Alavanyo to settle and pre ...

    Ashantis also misappropriated guans land and even wanted to claim monopoly on the guan ethnic group.

    Let there be peace my people! Create and stop being petty!

    What you just stated is an admission that Guan landshave been stolen by later migrants including Alavanyo ewes who also met Guans, who are the earliest inhabitants on these lands and Telefone cannot have pendelt land theremov ...
