Kumawuhene cautions chiefs against partisan politics
The Omanhene of Kumawu Traditional Area, Barima
Sarfo Tweneboa Kodua, has cautioned chiefs against
dabbling in partisan politics.

He was addressing chiefs at a meeting of the
Kumawu Traditional Council on Monday.

The Kumawuhene said chiefs, as agents of
development, should support whoever emerges winner
at the December elections, and not to be seen to
play active partisan roles.

The Omanhene said it was only proper that chiefs
lend support to a government in power to
accelerate development in their respective areas,
and not to be seen as part of electioneering
campaign teams of political parties.

Barima Tweneboa Kodua also entreated the chiefs to
work against violence during the elections.

He said they should guide their subjects,
particularly, the youth, to avoid conflicts as
much as possible, to ensure peaceful elections.
