Paramount chief urges politicians to eschew politics of insults
Oyeadeeyie Basape Kojo Armah III, Paramount Chief of Sefwi Bekwai Traditional Area, has urged politicians to avoid insults and distasteful comments towards their opponents when expressing their views on political issues.
He said the use of indecent language by politicians had the tendency to degenerate into a never-ending conflict that could plunge the country into chaos.
Oyeadeeyie Armah III made the call when Mr Bright Asamoah Brefo, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Parliamentary Candidate (PC), paid a courtesy call on him on Saturday at his palace.
The NDC candidate was at the palace to seek the chief’s advice and blessings to begin his campaign in the area ahead of the 2024 elections.
On some of the developmental gaps in his paramountcy, Oyeadeeyie Armah III mentioned lack of public toilets, district hospitals and market square as their major challenges, and appealed to Mr Brefo to help resolve those issues when given the nod.
Mr Brefo thanked the Sefwi Bekwai Paramount Chief for his warm reception, blessings and advice to pursue his political journey.
He promised to lead the charge for development projects in the area when given the opportunity to become the Member of Parliament (MP) in 2024. —GNA
