Audio Attachment:Listen to John Boadu on Neat FM |
Acting General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party [NPP], John Boadu says President John Dramani Mahama and the ruling National Democratic Congress [NDC] are behind the numerous chieftaincy disputes in the Ga traditional council.
He said for the past eight [8] years, the Ga people have not been able to properly celebrate their own Homowo festival.
“The NDC has decided to destool the paramount chief and some other chiefs so they can enstool their favorite in their own interest,” he said on NEAT FM’s morning show ‘Ghana Montie’ in an interview with Kwasi Aboagye.
His comment comes after President John Mahama said the flagbearer of the NPP, Nana Akufo-Addo, as intolerant as he is, will even cause the destoolement of chiefs who speak against his government if he wins power come December 7.
According to him, Ghanaians will do themselves a great deal of disservice if they vote for such a divisive leader who is not ready to accept any contrary views to his position held on issues.
Speaking at a rally in Suhum on Monday evening as part of his campaign tour of the Eastern Region, President Mahama stated that divisions and suspensions in the NPP under Akufo-Addo vindicates Ex-President Kuffuor's statement captured in a video where he advised party members to elect a leader who is not divisive and creates tension.
But John Boadu rather accused the NDC of masterminding such moves on chiefs – he alleged that MP for the Odododiodio constituency, Edwin Nii Lantey Vanderpuye spearheaded all the controversies surrounding the Ga chieftaincy disputes.
“We have decided to keep quiet on this issues but the President wants it out. One must not indulge in such political gimmicks, we have serious issues to talk about...and Ghanaians will vote massively against the NDC,” he said.

What has happened to the famous 'Salaga' market in Accra. The Gas have lost it big time
I dont believe Ghanaians are still interested in NDC upon all these of kinds of fake promises and other things we still go ahead and campaign for him. Oh Ghana Somebody should advice Charlotte Osei to consider Ghana as the only place for some pupil like us f she can buy houses and send her children abroad then she should know that not all parents can send their children and buy houses in the state. So she should think Ghana first before anything happens bad to the poor people of this country other than that she will be held responsible
You an IDIOOOOOOOOT to bring up Ga matters into politics. You are the son of Quadruppeds. STOP that ***barred word*** or face the wrath the Ga youth.
Nana GHARTEY of Winneba is uncomfortable any time NDC is in power.He was ok during NPP`s administration.The most interesting part of the story is they(ndc)gazzetted him
Where is YAA-NAA'S head? You and your party must bring it back from Gnassingbe or else opposition will be your DNA secret code.
This guy is just a joke in Ghana's politics , who are and how old are you to say mahama was a kid and did not contribute to the democracy in GH . You talk by heart.
Boadu say it again ooo they sell all the lands and will fight for their share in their fathers uncompleted building........poor my people always eating komi komi cos the men too are lazy
John Boadi is CORRECT !!!!!!!; the NDC party has fulled GA people for too long ;it started with JJ Rawlings and has ended up with Jon Mahama ; the truth is that JJ Rawlings have never liked Ga people but pretends ; Jon Mahama does not like GA people and Ewes one little bit but needs GAS to display their macho skills for 'NOKOFIO'; What did JJ Rawlings do for Ga people and has Jon Mahama done for GAS -NOTHING ;go to swalaba to today a complete eye sore ; go to most part of Accra today all melling and Ga people living in their own faeces with black bags containing faeces in the gutters ; the question what has GA done for themselves ; they have sold all their lands and live in the squalor filth asnd poverty ; Ga people sit on gold but they prefer to quarrel amongst themselves ; all their chiefs wait for is homowo for the each government to come and give them free fdrinks -POOR SOULS !!!!!!!!!; whilst other tribes laugh at them HAHAHA !!!; WHAT A PATHETIC PEOPLE WITH NO AIM IN LIFE !!!!!!!; JOHN BOADU HAS SAID IT ALL !!!!!!
John, you said it all. Nii lantey van pee whose ancestors came into klu town to carry human excreta and the TACKIE COMEY'S are the principal confusionists in GA chieftaincy matters. Latse is no Chief. He has been planted there by the ndc. When JDM visited the council some few weeks ago,there was over two hours of behind the scenes struggling between the chiefs. TACKIE Tawiah III was too strong for them so they wanted an illiterate who they can manipulate all for the sake of Ga lands. Latse's great grandmother is a POW (prisoner of war) who hails from Battor in the VR who was brought down to Accra after the Ga Anlo war by TACKIE Tawiah I when she was pregnant with his grandfather.He is not a royal. NDC has done a lot of disservice to the Ga State. JM foon). JM twaso.
