The Regional Youth Secretariat of the New Patriotic Party in Nayiri, the area that houses the paramount Chief of Wa has been defaced with red paints by some angry youth of the area.<\/p>\n
According to the perpetrators of the defacing of the NPP party office, the President is endorsing the legitimacy of Naa Fuseini Pelpuo IV, one of the claimants to the chieftaincy title.<\/p>\n
The Wa Traditional Area has been engulfed in a chieftaincy dispute for some time now, with three gates laying claim to the stool.<\/p>\n
The disgruntled youth embarked on the protest over President Akufo-Addo’s unprecedented visit to the Wa Naa, Naa Fuseini Pelpuo IV, on Wednesday, October 4.<\/p>\n
The youth explained that they do not understand why Wa Naa Alhaji Issah Seidu II, whom they say is the legitimate chief and staunch supporter of the NPP, will be treated this way as the party has been using his building for years without any charges as Regional Youth Secretariat.<\/p>\n
According to them, the office was donated to the party by the rival chief who is loyal to the NPP, but during the President\u2019s two-day working visit to the area, party leaders led him to visit Naa Fuseini Seidu Pelpuo IV, whom they claim is in bed with the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC).<\/p>\n
Wa Naa Alhaji Issah Seidu II told Class FM\u2019s Valentina Ofori Afriyie that: \u201cTraditionally, he was enskinned three years even before the rival chief popped up.\u201d<\/p>\n
He said he is \u201cin support of what they did\u201d by defacing the party office however, he is not against the NPP party and has called on the youth not to behave in any unlawful manner however, he is not happy with certain individuals whom he said masterminded the visit to the rival chief for their own selfish interests.<\/p>\n
He made it clear that he wants the NPP government to do the right thing and \u201cadvise the Regional Chairman to stay away from royal issues because he is not from a royal family\u201d. He further stated that he is peace-loving and waiting for the verdict of the chieftaincy dispute which is already in court, but he is confident of a favourable outcome as he has been installed legitimate chief by traditional authorities and has been discharging his duties efficiently for years.<\/p>\n
He explained that it is for the love of the NPP party that the building was given out for use and that will not change, but the Regional Chairman should be cautious and advised to do the right thing.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Regional Chairman was in NDC, since when did he come to the NPP, and what good thing did he do to uplift the image of the party?\u201d he questioned.<\/p>\n
According to him party financiers, elders and others who have \u201csacrificed and worked have all been neglected and now treated with disrespect by the Chairman\u201d.
