Queen Mother of Jasikan traditional authority in the Volta region Nana Abena Appewbea II, sounded very harsh and uncompromising when she was speaking to journalists about deplorable states of roads in the area.
She did not mince her words in what looks like a caveat to the NDC government.
“I am the queen mother of Jasikan traditional authority, I’m telling them, this time we will not vote for them unless they put our roads in better states”
She added that ‘Voltarians’ cannot continue to nidificate for the NDC when all they get is unprecedented neglect for their poor roads and adequate social amenities. She assured that their votes in the next elections will based on thorough assessments of developmental projects of a particular government.
“NDC has been very ungrateful, this time we are telling President that they fix our roads or we refuse them and vote for anyone who will fix our damage roads”
Nana Appewbea II is not the only traditional authority from the region to make such reservations, it would be recalled that some stools of chiefs spoke strongly against the disconnection of the region in terms development and economic activities which prompted a reply from President Mahama.
‘
The President in that gathering assured the chiefs “I will never take you for granted” and gave explanations why there seems to be developmental challenges in the region.
The Queen Mother was speaking at Buem Excellence Award in Buem where the current Vice Secretary and aspiring National Organiser of the NDC, Kofi Adams was a Special Guest of Honour.
