The Paramount Chief of Gomoa Akyempim Traditional Area, Obrifo Ahunako Ahor Ankobea II has called for an end to the "winner-takes-all" politics, being practised in Ghana to enhance national cohesion and unity.
Speaking to the Ghana News Agency at Apam in the Central Region, the Omanhen noted that the trend breeds hatred, jealousy and discontent among the citizens and also undermine national development.
He attributed agitations for the removal of certain people from office and seizure of some national property as direct result of the
winner-takes-all system.
Touching on the behaviour of some supporters of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC), who described themselves as "foot-soldiers",
Obrifo Ahor Ankobea, condemned their agitations for the removal from office of some District Chief Executives and other government officials.
He said such actions did not suggest that they were true lovers of the party.
Obrifo Ahor Ankobea an Ex-serviceman said soldiers are disciplined professionals who protect and defend the nation and so as foot soldiers they must rather let the welfare of the NDC to be their topmost priority "and not
to wash its dirty linen in public'.
The Omanhen reminded the foot soldiers that President John Evans Atta Mills promised Ghanaians that he was going to be President for all.
He said foot soldiers: "Must do away with selfishness and fight for all the youth of Ghana."
Obrifo Ahor Ankobea asked political activists to involve traditional rulers in finding solution to their grievances
"We traditional rulers are peace makers who are ready to help to resolve problems in our areas to pave way for peace and development," he
said.
