    Thank you very muchb for your comments. I've always wondered why some people take delight in always playing tribal victims. We need to be proud of who we are because that's the only way we can be appreciated.

    gbenu, well said. I have lived in Volta Rgon and married to voltaian . I have three ofmydaughters all married to voltarians. Koku's comments is unfortunate. He should bow down his head in shame.

  • E. A. ADU GYAMFI 7 years ago

    Ethnocentric sentiments have always been used by the NDC. It has always worked for them but they are in for a big surprise this year (Elections 2016).
    Kwakuo Anidaho Bonnee should take note!!!
