It would appear that those in control of the NDC, for the time being, were bent on excluding other bona fide members of the Party who may wish to lay democratic claims to who becomes the next flag bearer of the Party by excluding them even before the mortal remains of the demised President were interred. It is also symptomatic of how political party elites in Ghana and Africa worm their way into the confidences of persons perceived as likely to ascend to power positions for purposes of eventual personal economic gain at the expense of the generality of the mass of Party members and the Nation which every President swears to serve under the Constitution

I personally think the best this our DULLARD MAHAMA should do is to be brave enough to CEDE the Volta Region to the EWES. Otherwise, where would all these monies be coming from to support such STUPID programme at the expense of the Southern Businesses that this myopic government is hell bent on destroying????
We MUST remember that majority of these EWES were "UNOFFICIAL INDENTURERD LABOURERS" that Dictator Kwame Nkrumah annexed into the mainland Ghana.
EWES were NEVER part of our Ghanaian Political Struggles, and till date there is NOTHING MEANINGFUL that they do contribute towards mother GHANA apart from ENVIOUS and sending in their KITS from TOGO.
Ghanaians should rather go to WAR than accede to this STUPID PROGRAMME OF THIS THIEF DULLARD MAHAMA.
If truly there is OIL and enough KITA SCHOOL BOYS in this EWELAND, then let them develop that themselves instead of such SILLY TALK!!!

Ewes had their trade when Bush Asantes were stuck in the Forest jumping from one tree to another.
Ewes did not go Asante land by their own but the lack of trained professionals in Asante land got them there. In fact there was no civilization at all among the natives of Asante Land until Busia seized all NIGERIAN businesses and handed them to Bush Asantes and Akyems.

That's what blatant bloody minded bigotry does to one's pysche, as it has done to this lot: Quainoo, Osei Tawiah from the B/A, that Idiot to the Bone, and their ilk of "These Akans" clan.
This is a man who has read my piece on how some Ewes became a part of modern Ghana but he goes about making statements which only an abject ignoramus can make. So what is wrong at all with this sect of jaded ingrates I have catgorised into the sub-sect "These Akans"? Btw, his name shows that he is of Fante backround rather than Asante, as someone had already wrongly assumed; so let us not narrow this canker to "Asantes". I have never met an Asante called Quainoo before.

HOW SOME “EWES” BECAME PART OF PRESENT GHANA
To say that one is sick and tired of reading ignorant utterances about how “Ewes” were given the chance to join Ghana by Nkrumah from patently jaundiced and bloody-minded, ignorant fellow Ghanaians, MOSTLY of Akan origins and a few most stupid and ignorant Gas, is a big understatement. I therefore put together a concise history of how some “Ewes” became part of Ghana for all readers. Its strident nature derives from the fact that it was directed at the virulently bigoted anti-Ewe elements that afflict the Ghanaweb forum. Nothing reasonable sinks into them unless it is hammered in with mighty blows. So dense they are, consumed by their own phenomenal ignorance!
Nonetheless, I am under no illusion whatsoever that this brief piece will stop the bozos who indulge in this kind of display of ignorance from continuing to do so, even after reading this; not only because of the scientifically recognised fact that awareness and knowledge of adverse causes and better practices do not necessarily stop continuation of adverse behavioural practices leading to adoption of best practices, but also because the putrid and rotting worm-wood from which they emerge from, that is, our educational system, continues to churn out similarly ignorant and foolish elements on an annual basis. The problem must therefore be addressed at source: our educational system and curricula.
Steeped in the foregoing knowledge, I have carved for myself a monstrous-looking spikes-studded club to deal with any such miscreants who might be provoked by this article to begin their ethnic cleansing of the much vilified “Ewes” from Ghana to Togo.
I would not bother myself now and again with retelling (I’ve done that elsewhere) of how the groups of linguistically and culturally different peoples who now comprise the ethnic group known to many as “Ewes”, but which linguists now have tagged the “Gbe” people, migrated and settled within the borders of Togo and present Ghana up to seven hundred years ago, as Ghana came into being on 6 March 1957 and that is where my story begins. That has been dealt with elsewhere in an upcoming series, an abridged version of a book which has been on ice for a long while now.
After all, it was Gbedemah, an “Ewe,” and the leader of the Committee for Youth Organisation (CYO), who was asked to replace him (Nkrumah) as General Secretary of the UGCC, who convinced him (Nkrumah) to leave the UGCC and gave him the chance to lead the CPP which was being formed by elements within the CYO; and who again gave him his Accra seat and led the campaign for the CPP and Nkrumah to win while in prison to become Leader of Government Business. Gbedema himself went to stand for the Keta seat. If Gbedema had not done that, he would have become the first Leader of Government Business, not Nkrumah; so Gbedema, an “Ewe,” gave Nkrumah the chance in more ways than what I have referred to in the foregoing to become leader of independent Ghana. Of course, I consider it in poor taste to mention in details the financial support and sustenance Gbedema gave then homeless Nkrumah, as someone did in an article on Ghanaweb a while ago even though it was part of the relationship.
Nkrumah, of course, a chief in his own right in Nzema, got his first ceremonial chieftaincy title in Anloga, when he came on his Thank You visit for the valiant roles Ewes played in the election victory of the CPP. That was before everything turned sore and Anloga led the revolt against the CPP in 1953, for breach of election promises not to enforce the much hated poll tax and not properly dealing with grievances about the cutting of swollen shoot diseased cocoa trees and failing to increase cocoa prices when the world price was hitting the roof, thanks to the Korean War. The decision not to increase cocoa prices paid to farmers was due to the infamous “anchor of safety” and stemming inflation advice (it created the large reserve on attainment of independence, btw.) he, Nkrumah, accepted from the West Indian Nobel Laureate Sir Arthur Lewis. Some Anlo elite were also major cocoa farm owners in the TVT and elsewhere. The riots that started in Anloga and spread to the rest of the country were well documented by Dennis Austin in his seminal book on Ghana, so check it, if you want to be properly informed. Those events had deep impacts on the Anlo elite and eventually led to the coup of 1966 spearheaded by some Anlo officers in the Police and Army.
Those of you who like to criticise Kofi Awoonor for what he wrote in his book “The Ghana Revolution” should also look up his book specially devoted to Asantes and Ewes to read what he said about how they escaped from Anloga across the Volta to Ada Foah when the “Buga Buga War” started. I bet you never heard of that war before, eh?
So, nobody gave Ewes the chance to join Ghana in 1957, as some Ewe stalwarts led in the fight to create modern Ghana. Left to some Ewes though, they'd have seceded from the Gold Coast, to which they were lampooned by the British many decades earlier and had become fed up with because of the nascent demonization and vilification started by the forebears of today's Ghanaweb jaded jingoists. I had already partially dealt with that in an earlier article and the abridged series mentioned above shall follow suit.
Moreso, the coastal areas from Anlo, through Tongu up to Peki and Tsito-Awudome, being part of the Eastern Province of the Gold Coast, were even indeed declared part of the British sphere of influence way back in 1850, 6 yrs after the signing of the Bond of 1844 with the Fantes. The British “bought” in 1850 the area from the Danes who were forced to leave the Gold Coast after they were defeated with Napolean at Waterloo in 1848. Interesting to note that Norway, then under Danish control for over 400 years, was also passed over to the Swedes, allies of Britain at Waterloo. Of course, those “bought” were not consulted and did not accept that their homeland had been sold and thus resisted attempts by the British to assert their authority over the area, leading to conflicts.
The area was declared part of the Gold Coast colony proper in 1876 or so. Before that, the Anlos had sued for peace with the British, bringing to a close the Glover War, fought against the Anlos as a side show to the Sagrenti War. A Peace Treaty was signed at Dzelukope after the Sagrenti War of 1874. I have a sketch of that historical event which appeared in the UK Graphic of Oct, 10 1874, which is an attachment to this article (not attached here, so I can send it privately to anyone interested), as it is a historical relic of interest to many. You’d see sitting “Folu, King of Jella Coffee,” “Adjaba, King of Awoonah,” and “War Captain Cocumay” and “Chief Asantee Ambassador Okobim Paba” addressing them and you’d know where yours truly comes from. War Captain Cocumay happened to be the father of Torgbui Sri II who was in the Legislative Council from 1916-42, and same as my great, great grandfather. Our ancestors therefore played their roles on the battle-fields and on the high table when the Gold Coast and its history were being carved, so before you open your mouth against us, ask yourself who born you, and who and what were your ancestors when the Gold Coast was being carved? The Ga kings Tackie from Accra and Solomon from James Town were also there, among others who fought on the side of the British.
In fact, those wars were fought due to events which also occurred in northern Eweland [besides events on the Fante side], when Asante slave raiders kidnapped and took the missionaries and white traders (the Ramseyers, Bonnat, etc.) from Ho to Kumasi as hostages for ransom. Of course, not only the missionaries were taken, as even some natives who collaborated with the Asantes soon found themselves as captives at Kontsiabu instead of the promised gold dusts but that is another story altogether I had recounted elsewhere and is due for recounting soon. With the decisive defeat of Asante and her steadfast Anlo ally, that Ewe area known in the annals as “Krepi” through Buem, Dagbon in N/R to much of present Upper East, which later on became known as the Trans-Volta Togoland (TVT), became a British Protectorate until after the Berlin Conference when Queen Victoria gave it in 1884 as a birthday present to her German cousin, who famously wanted a "place in the sun," as part of the balkanisation of and Scramble for Africa after the Berlin Conference. The Germans already had a small strip of Togoland. So the TVT was even under British sphere of influence for some years before being given to the Germans.
In 1915, at the start of WWI, the British took back the area and much of German Togoland (the French took the eastern part) with the help of troops raised by Torgbui Sri II, for which he was awarded the KMAC and sword of honour, and inducted into the LegCo in 1916 with Nana Ofori Attah of Akyem Abuakwa. After WWI, despite the campaign by the natives to unite the whole of Togoland to the Gold Coast, the British kept what they gave to the Germans in 1884 (TVT) and gave the rest - what the Germans had before - to the French, thus forming present Republic of Togo. Of course, the records show that it was Torgbui Sri II who was the first to call for the unification of Togo to the Gold Coast way back in 1915. By the end of the war, it was fully embraced by some native leaders of German Togoland, some of whose leaders sent a letter to the colonial government of the Gold Coast which curiously stated inter alia:
“We PEOPLE of Togoland, descended from two principal countries, Elmina
(Ane) and Accra (Ge), both of the Gold Coast Colony, ask to have British government because it is the government of our fathers, whose customs are our customs, and a British Colony is half-an-hour distant from us.
We ask to have British government because it is the government of our kith and kin, our race and our tribe.
We ask for British government because of our relationship with our people on the west, which must assert itself...” (“December 6, 1919 edition of the West Africa magazine, culled from West Africa 12-16 Dec. 1994)
I have always wondered why no mention of being “Ewes” was made by the supplicants. Of course, conspicuously absent too were names of many others such as Dagombas, Konkombas, Dagbons, Akans, Mamprusis, Grunshies, Nkonyas, Kabres, etc., etc., who also have the TVT and Togo as their homeland at the time too. That was not an auspicious beginning for their objective, being what they were: descendants of fugitives who have settled amongst the original Ewe speakers in southern Togo!
Anyway, how those claiming to be Gas and Anes (Anyis) in Togo got there is quite another story I had re-told a number of times but I’d like the Akwamus and Asantes, former allies of we Anlos, to tell us their versions respectively. And to those ignorant and jaded MPs of the NPP who went to Lome to look for the roots of Fiifi Kwetey, who of course, claimed to be from Nogokpo in the Klikor area, and thereby rubbing a sore spot in my memory, next time they should begin the search in Ayawaso so that I am not reminded of Dzenunyegbodzi and the treacheries of Klikor!
How that desire for a union with the Gold Coast turned into the drive for secession is quite another story I had already touched upon in a previous article and better covered by the likes of Prof. Amenumey in his book on the subject, a copy of which I have behind me. In any case, the plebiscite of 1956 was to determine whether TVT, a UN Mandated Territory, should be added to the Gold Coast, be on its own, or rejoin present Togo, or something like that, whatever. It was a messy affair, as it did not take into account the wishes of the Ewe Unification Movement which had reached fever pitch in southern Eweland from Anlo to Peki, already part of the Gold Coast, and which was prevented from taking part in the plebiscite. Had those areas taken part, enough votes would have been garnered to secede from the Gold Coast, as a majority voted in the Ewe areas of the TVT to secede. Unfortunately, their votes were outweighed by votes from the non-Ewe areas of the TVT stretching from northern VR through eastern section of Northern Region to much of present Upper East. Indeed, parts of the TVT were also later added to the Greater Accra and Eastern Regions too by Nkrumah and Busia. So, only a portion of the TVT was added to the Eweland within the Gold Coast to form the present VR. Those of us who come from the south were thus part of the Gold Coast decades earlier before 1900 when the Protectorate of Asante was declared after their defeat in the Yaa Asantewa War, and before 1946, when the Burns Constitution made Asante and the Northern Territories part of the Gold Coast Colony proper too.
That, in brief, is how parts of Eweland and some Ewes became a part of present Ghana. It is a pity that this basic history is not taught in our basic schools so that all know this somehow. Rather, we get all kinds of ignoramuses spewing rubbish about how Nkrumah allowed Ewes to join Ghana and they would deport Ewes to Togo! I am waiting for them bozos with my spikes-studded club. Let no one say I didn’t warn them!

O Lord I pray for Mother Ghana, that you reduce the number of FOOLISH VOTERS in 2016. Father the small number that will be left, wash their faces with sea sand so that they would be able to see the predicament they have put Ghana in through their foolish action, and change for the better. I pray that you let them vote this USELESS and CLUELESS GOVERNMENT out. Let those who these FOOLISH VOTERS envy because they are prospering as a result of which they vote foolishly so that they will be equal with them prosper even more. Father let those who are sympathetic to these USELESS VOTERS stop giving them money when they come begging, so that they will realize 'Ghana is hard', and vote wisely this time round. Lord, there are too many office to office beggars in Ghana, that is a sign of poverty, kick those who encourage this out of office. Merciful Father, too many FOOLISH VOTERS who have no sense of dignity are rewarded with trips to soccer matches only to go and sleep on the floor in foreign land, and eventually seek asylum, stamp that disgraceful spirit out of Ghana. Lord, you have blessed us with everything that can make us rich, but you seemed to have forgotten to protect mother Ghana from greedy politicians and thieves; we call on you to rise and let these nation wreakers scatter in 2016. Amen

Corney, the fact that someone like that is calling Mahama names shows the depth of disenchantment among even pro-NDC and anti-NPP Ewes. Mahama has simply proved himself to be a colossal disappointment and embarrassment to all sane people who supported him.
And as for that impostor to the Awoamezi from the Logba area, he is not only a very foolish person but not worthy of the stool he is desecrating thanks to equally foolish Anlos like you. We shall descend on all of you.

It is sad how most of you don't realized how you have been taken advantage of for over 25 years by these group of useless politicians led by JJ Rawlings. Until you the educated ones among these folks in the volta region help the less fortunate ones understand stand that casting a vote based on tribal attachment and not on competence will not help them, nothing will change in the region in terms of development. Are you aware that out of Ghana's 57 years of existence as a country, the PNDC/NDC has ruled the country for over 25 years? Deduct that from 57 years and share the rest to other people who have had the chance to rule Ghana. If at the end of this calculation, you still stick to your gun, then you are falling into the bracket of a FOOLISH VOTER. A wise voter is one who assess the performance of any politician he/she votes for, before making an informed choice. Any voter who exchange his/her vote for any kind of gift is also a FOOLISH VOTER. A voter who casts his vote in anticipation of vising who he/she is voting for in office later to beg for money is also a FOOLISH VOTER. Again, anyone who votes for a politician hoping to be transported to football marches abroad is a FOOLISH VOTER. If we want our nation to move forward, we must vote for competence and integrity. Martin Amidu was sacked by Atta Mills for defending Ghana from being robbed by Wayome. Today, Martin has single handedly won that case for Ghana in court. Why is he still outside, not playing any role in government? Don't we want anything good for Ghana? Must you support a politician like you support HEART and KOTOKO? Don't we pay them for the work they do, so why are we still not progressing? Why do they get rich within a term of administration, whiles others work their whole lifetime and still remain poor? It is time people like you help those members of our families who are less educated to understand these things and make informed decisions. That is the only way Ghana can move forward. Last but not the least, stop covering criminals who are hiding behind politics to steal from the nation with NDC/NPP. once that continue, these thieves will feel embolden to steal more because they know there are FOOLISH PARTY SUPPORTERS who will cover. Anywhere you here anyone making reference to someone stealing before so why can't this one too steal? tell that person that CLOSE OBSERVER said he/she is a FOOLISH SUPPORTER and VOTER. I rest my case.

The Volta Region has in contemporary times been the World Bank of the
P(NDC)party and gov't. Those ties are very strong and goes very deep. This World Bank status has become a double-edged sword that has served to thwart the development and progress of the Volta Region, with broken promises, poverty, deprivation, illiteracy, hunger, disease, human suffering, crime etc, etc being the order of the day, with the Region being taken for granted because, the expectation is that, the Volta Region would still vote for the NDC party, without any problem. Indeed, Dr. Kwabena Adjei, the Chairman of the NDC has made the point that, for the NDC party, there is certain percentage of votes which the NDC party would get, no matter what and that is the Volta Region the World bank, although nothing is happening for the region.
The election cycle is here again and as usual the promises have started flowing even though the previous ones are still on the drawing board.
Maybe it's about time the Volta region the World bank of the NDC started questioning their World bank status, and the dividends is has brought to the region, and have a rethink, lest the status of being the world bank leads to the further underdevelopment of the Volta Region.

The voodoo Priest of a small village was very fond of his flock of ten hens and a cockerel.
He kept them in a hen house behind the Voodoo Shrine, but one Saturday night, the cockerel was missing.
The voodoo priest, suspecting fowl play decided to say something about it at the Hogbetsoso festival the next morning.
At the festival, he asked the Agbadza dance he asked, has anyone got a cock? To which all the men stood up.
"No,no," he said, somewhat flustered, "that's not what I meant. "Has anybody SEEN a cock?" All the women stood up.
"No, no," he said. "Thats not what I meant either. Has anyone seen a cock that doesn't belong to them." Half the women stood up.
"No, no," He said, now thoroughly embarrassed "Perhaps I should rephrase the question: Has anybody here seen MY cock?" All the Agbadza boys stood up.

The increasing population and technological advancement in the country requires more energy to meet our needs.It will be of national great interest if govt encourage energy producing companies to build a new TERMAL PLANT in the Volta region.There is also a huge deposit of gas and oil deposit in the Northern region according to the Geological Survey.If our Scientist get back to work and design another Termal Plant in the North then I can see Ghana has a bright future.There are many sources of energy but we are not doing much to explore them thus the dumsu domsu phenomenon.If I were to be the president of Ghana today,I will make sure to build at least 3 more Thermal Plants and more Solar energy to stop the Dumsu Dumsu.Thank you.

Oh, John "Aplanke Prez" Mahama and his rhetoric; so-so promise all everywhere, and everywhere yet Ghanaians say the don't see or feel the economic progress you're talking about.
Observing the prevailing horrible economic situation in Ghana, it's clear that John Mahama is a hopelss president, who doesn't have any clues about moving Ghana forward; everything he touches becomes a failure. Ghanaians should open their eyes and their minds and vote out Mahama and his NDC gov't in 2016.
There's no hope in sight so long as the NDC remains in power. They've destroyed all the economic achievements that the Kuffour gov't brought to the people of Ghana. They lied about Kuffour and the NPP and used "buga-buga" means to take the seat of gov't. Now the evidence is clear, for all to see.
In fact people are suffering and dying; many have committed suicide after going through the pain and misery, in this NDC era. And John Mahama still want to hang on as president, so people could keep on suffering? Tweeaaaaa! Why? Never!

The voodoo Priest of a small village was very fond of his flock of ten hens and a cockerel.
He kept them in a hen house behind the Voodoo Shrine, but one Saturday night, the cockerel was missing.
The voodoo priest, suspecting fowl play decided to say something about it at the Hogbetsoso festival the next morning.
At the festival, he asked the Agbadza dance he asked, has anyone got a cock? To which all the men stood up.
"No,no," he said, somewhat flustered, "that's not what I meant. "Has anybody SEEN a cock?" All the women stood up.
"No, no," he said. "Thats not what I meant either. Has anyone seen a cock that doesn't belong to them." Half the women stood up.
"No, no," He said, now thoroughly embarrassed "Perhaps I should rephrase the question: Has anybody here seen MY cock?" All the Agbadza boys stood up.
