“December Election Will Be Simple Because Of Opportunity For Voters To Compare Achievements Of Parties” – Sefwi Wiawsomanhene”

The paramount chief of Sefwi Wiawso has commended the government for introducing an innovative programme on the various s news outlets and social media platforms to account to the people of their achievements.

Katakyie Kwasi Bumangamah II said the initiative has made this year’s elections very simple.

“The election will be simple because voters have had the benefit of appreciating what have been the achievements or failures of the political parties contesting the elections and to decide from a well-informed position which party or candidate deserves their vote.” He noted.

Katakyie Bumangamah shared his thoughts when he was addressing the General Meeting by the Sefwi Wiawso Traditional Council at Sefwi Wiawso in the Western Region.
The meeting also witnessed the swearing-in of new chiefs as members of the Sefwi Wiawso Traditional Council. The chief and his elders also used the occasion to deliberate on their annual festival dubbed, ”Elluo.”

The Sefwi Wiawsomanhene urged the youth to resist the temptation of being used by political interest groups to engage in acts that can undermine the sanctity of the elections.
“The temptation of being paid a pittance to engage in electoral violence should be resisted at all cost before, during and after the elections because the nation cannot tolerate any such diabolical acts that can draw us back as a nation.”

Turning to Nananom’s involvement in partisan politics, Katakyie Bumangamah II appealed to the country’s traditional rulers to stay neutral at all times by refraining from openly endorsing candidates of their choice’

“You compromise your neutrality if you openly declare your support for a particular candidate or party and by extension you are tagged as a politician which shouldn’t be the normal. Your role is to serve as intermediaries between the government and their people for community growth .” He emphasized.
