The Bono Regional Youth Organizer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Efo Worlanyo Tsekpo is warning the President Akufo-Addo led the New Patriotic Party government the distasteful textbooks against the Ewe speaking people that found their way into the market could lay a foundation for tribal war.
For the past few weeks, there has been a huge outcry over some textbooks meant lower primary school in Ghana in which a series f derogatory comments and depictions were made about Ewe speaking people, Ghana’s first President, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah among others.
Though the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment has stated that those books were not approved, the outspoken youth leader is accusing the government of being behind the textbooks.
“This hatred for Ewes by NPP didn’t start today, Nana Addo just decided to make it official by paying his own people to do the nonsense they did. It started from Busia’s era when he sacked most public and civil servants with Ewe ethnic background.” – Efo Worlanyo alleged
Addressing the press today, Mr. Tsekpo said “The truth about the plan of this government which could spark a tribal war in Ghana is clear but people are pretending and massaging the naval instead of going straight to swim in the river of life in between the legs of Eve.”
“The dangerous aspect of what is happening is that Nana Addo and his government are laying the foundation for a tribal war in Ghana because we can’t sit down and watch this government take us for granted and continue to treat us as second-class citizens.” – he warned
Read his full statement:
NANA ADDO AND HIS NPP ARE LAYING THE FOUNDATION FOR A TRIBAL WAR IN GHANA.
The truth about the plan of this government which could spark a tribal war in Ghana is clear but people are pretending and massaging the naval instead of going straight to swim in the river of life in between the legs of Eve.
This hatred for Ewes by NPP didn’t start today, Nana Addo just decided to make it official by paying his own people to do the nonsense they did. It started from Busia’s era when he sacked most public and civil servants with Ewe ethnic background.
Nana Addo’s plan today is to continue the legacies of those who came after him.
No wonder most of our influential and hardworking public and civil servants with Ewe background were dismissed without any reason just like Busia did.
No wonder we are called Togolese and foreigners by senior government officials and most of our people disenfranchised by using people like Amewu who is a known full-blooded Togolese whose brother is the current opposition leader in Togo.
No wonder our region, the Volta Region became military barracks during the 2020 elections.
Today Ewes who were recruited under Nana Addo when Npp took over are less than 2percent of the total recruits from 2016 till date.
Today Nana Addo and his government have decided to pollute our children by carefully crafting a new curriculum to enable them to distort history and formally show their hatred for Ewes as well as sow the seed of hatred between Ewes and other ethnic groups.
My checks from the Flagstaff House show that the books were authored in the Flagstaff House and were just handed over to the publishers for publication.
It is time all Ewes rise up against this Nonsense before they demarcate our boundaries and push us to Togo.
The dangerous aspect of what is happening is that Nana Addo and his government are laying the foundation for a tribal war in Ghana because we can’t sit down and watch this government take us for granted and continue to treat us as second-class citizens.
It’s better we rise protect and keep our country together than allow a few people to divide us into tribal lines.
We will RISE and they can’t stop us!
