The National Democratic Congress (NDC) chapter in the Volta Region is requesting that President Nana Akufo-Addo issue an unequivocal apology to locals.
According to them, the apology is for what they called the humiliation that he [Akufo-Addo] inflicted on the decent citizens of the area during the Ghana card registration.
“Apologise for treating the people of the Volta Region as second-class citizens in the registration for the ECOWAS card (Ghana Card),” the party demanded.
Along with other things, the President was urged in a statement signed by the NDC Regional Secretary James Gunu to keep his word and finish all unfinished projects.
The party argued that citizens must be able to relate to the 66th Independence Day celebration‘s theme, “Our Unity, Our Strength, Our Purpose,” which was held in the Volta Region.
