There was a lot of money in the system and Ghanaians had cash in their pocket when Mr John Kufuor was president, Nana Obonbo Sewura Lipuwura II, Paramount Chief of Nkwanta Akyode Traditional Area in the Volta Region has said.
He, therefore, says it is only the main opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) under the leadership and presidency of Nana Akufo-Addo that can bring prosperity to Ghanaians again.
“Under President Kufuor’s tenure, I can say with all certainty that all was well with Ghana. There was money in the land and in the pockets of people. However, under President Mahama men are crying, women are crying, the youth and old are all crying,” the Nkwanta Chief lamented.
“There’s a saying that you visit two markets before one can tell which is the best. We have, indeed, visited two markets over the last 16 years, and we know which is best. We know it is the NPP that can help us,” he added on Wednesday, October 26, 2016, when Nana Akufo-Addo and the leadership of the NPP in the Volta Region paid a courtesy call on him at his palace in Nkwanta.
Nana Obonbo Sewura Lipuwura II and 56 other chiefs in the Nkwanta South constituency comprising five Paramount Chiefs and 52 sub-chiefs declared their support for the NPP’s 2016 presidential candidate as Ghanaians head to the polls on December 7.
With a majority of the youth of Nkwanta unemployed, Nana Obonbo Sewura Lipuwura II endorsed Nana Akufo-Addo’s 1-District-1-Factory policy, adding that “we know you can do it. We have already allocated a parcel of land for the factory to be sited. We know you can do it.”
Akin to the pledge made by Nana Akufo-Addo to create the ‘Western-North’ Region out of the Volta Region, the Chiefs of Nkwanta appealed to Nana Akufo-Addo “to create the Oti Region, and site the capital in Nkwanta.”
Nana Obonbo Sewura Lipuwura II, reiterated the unwavering support of 56 other Chiefs in the Nkwanta Akyode Traditional Area, praying for good health, wisdom, long life for Nana Akufo-Addo.

Another lie
this chief is very wise. he has spoken the truth. change is coming very quick.
This are the reason NPP went back to volta region to come and tell more lies. I don't believe this story one bit. They saw massive support they gave to mahama which compel them to go back so they can come and tell more lies. Ghana and Voltarians are beyond lies
You & Jonathan Lagos should keep dreaming !!! 😅😅😅😅😅😅
Wise chief , you talk well . you have reserved a parcel of plot for the factory to be built on, that is faith and it shall surely come to pass. indeed you have a good heart for your people. it shall be well with you. no more tribalism but stand for truth and development for your people. Wise Man
THIS CHIEF IS ONLY TELLING LIES BECAUSE HE ONLY REPRESENT JUST ONE PARAMOUNTCY AND HAS JURISDICTION OVER LESS THAN TEN SUB-CHIEFS. THE OTHER FOUR PARAMOUNTCY WHO NANA NEGLECTED ARE AUTONOMOUS AND THE ONE CHIEF COULD NOT SPEAK FOR THE REST FOUR. NEXT TIME NANA SHOULD NOT DISCRIMINATE SINCE HE SERVES AS A PRESIDENT IN WAITING FOR ALL
