Dzifa Attivor's tribal comments 'barbaric' - Rev. Asante

The minister, who resigned her position as a result of the Metro Mass Transit bus rebranding saga, is reported to have told a group of National Democratic Congress (NDC) supporters that a New Patriotic Party (NPP) government in 2017 will arrest some of them just like in 2001, when the NPP assumed office.

 

The minister, who resigned her position as a result of the Metro Mass Transit bus rebranding saga, is reported to have told a group of National Democratic Congress (NDC) supporters that a New Patriotic Party (NPP) government in 2017 will arrest some of them just like in 2001, when the NPP assumed office.

She made this known during the launch of ‘Ketu South for Fiifi and Mahama’ at Wodoaba in the Ketu South Constituency.

According to her, the NPP, if voted into power, will arrest Ewes like her and Fiifi Fiavi Kwetey – Member of Parliament for the Constituency.

Prof. Asante described the minister's comments as "divisive", "barbaric" and uncalled for.

"These are the things that create tension in society and it must be condemned...It is below the belt," the immediate past Presiding Bishop of the Methodist Church of Ghana told Accra-based TV3.

He was hopeful that “intelligent” people of the Volta Region will vote on issues and not on tribal lines.
