GIVE MORE APPOINTMENTS TO CHAIRMAN WONTUMI- Volta Group backs Kennedy Agyepong




A Group in the Volta Region has backed call by the Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Hon. Kennedy Agyepong, for the President to consider giving the chunk of appointments to the Ashanti Region in his next administration. 




Results from last Monday's elections once again proved Ashanti Region as the bedrock of the New Patriotic Party, after garnering a whopping 1.794,000 million votes for the President,  His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo. 




The region singlehandedly carried the President on its shoulders, cancelling total votes obtained by the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) in eight regions.




Reactions from the outcome has largely been a mixed one, with many commending the regional leadership for a good job done, despite failing to achieve the 47 Parliamentary target.




The outspoken MP for Assin Central, Hon. Kennedy Agyepong, in a video that has since gone viral, has suggested to the President to give large percentage of the appointments to persons from the Ashanti Region as a compensation for the massive support shown to the party.




His comment has therefore received backing from supporters across the 16 regions.




Already,  a group based in the Upper East Region,  Upper East NPP Patriots,  has thrown its weight behind Chairman Wontumi and his team for the impressive result. 




The latest to add its voice to the call is  a Volta Region group,  Youth For Action,  which has backed the call made by the Assin Central Legislator.




According to them, the only way the ruling NPP consolidate its gains in any future election is to prioritize the Ashanti  Region.




"Election is about victory and so we need to first put priority on what brings us result, Ashanti Region has been consistent and therefore deserves the bigger share of the national cake"

BRAKO Diamonds were first discovered in the Gold Coast Colony (Ghana) near the Birim River close to the town of Abomosu in 1919. The Birim diamond discoveries led mining companies to invest along that river. However, not until 1929 did organized diamond mining begin following additional diamond discoveries made by Ghanaian prospectors in the gravels of Bediebewu streams near Tarkwa. In 1924, the Consolidated African Selection Trust (CAST) was formed and became the major diamond mining company in Ghana. Over 2 million carats were mined by CAST from 1924 to 1939. CAST’s early success led to investment in other diamond exploration and mining ventures in West Africa particularly in Ghana – resulting in the establishment of Great Consolidated Diamond (GCD).  1n 1963 Lake Asubone was created artificially in Asubone near Akwatia in Denkyembour District of Gh...
