With barely two (2) months for parts of Ghana to go for referendum for six(6) additional regions, one of the country's veteran statesmen and legal achievers, Dr. Obed Yao Asamoah, has called to order some detractors of the new wave of development coming to the people within the proposed Oti Region carved out of the Volta Region.
"But for Oti Region I wouldn't grant you this interview. The region is long overdue. Those against it should do so through the ballot box and stop making noise. The suit to let all in the Volta Region vote is legal nonsense,"
The 82-year old pragmatic native of the land said ahead of the referendum.
The forthcoming exercise has passed all the constitutional/legal tests from petitions to exhibitions/limited voter registration and enjoyed massive support from well-meaning Ghanaians.
The president, Nana Akufo-Addo, has severally assured Ghanaians of his "no interest" in the referendum for political gains or to bring disunity among any group.
His calls have been backed by majority of people of different political affiliations due to the new dawn of local governance for the citizenry.
The readiness of the chiefs and people of the proposed Oti Region to massively turn up to vote yes cannot be downplayed.
Few opponents have therefore resorted to peddling of misleading comments which have exposed their mischiefs.

How big is the land atall dat you and your political leaders us alone.. After all Jesus Christ do good to everyone even dou is not all who like him. Dat is leadership
i commend the government for the creation of new regions.at least development in our beloved country will see growth and expansion. but sincerely, i am saddened with the kind of odd name that has been given to the region. what is Oti region? for CHRIST SAKE!!!!! , SHDNT IT HAVE BEEN THE Capital city? AHHHHHHH
By the time we are done with the creation of new regions, the NDC world bank will become a rural bank. Oti will vote for npp for appreciation. Ashanti and Eastern region would be intact. Politics is a game of sense. You must be smart and always ahead of your opponents.
Who sees Obed Asamoah as a smart person?
Whether you like it or not, Obed has the right support the Oti movement. You prefer stealing to getting a gift. Oti all the way. Thank you nana

Thank you Dr Obed Asamoah for your objectivity, foresightedness and common s3ense. A BIG FAT SHAME TO TOGBUI AFEDE ( The hearts of oak FC killer) and some irrelevant sub chiefs who for their own parochial political mindedness are hell bent on disrupting efforts to have the region properly developed and well managed. The Volta region is one of the least developed and needs urgent attention to better maximise its development and huge tourism potential. The n0n£sense should stop.
