Prior to the commencement of the National Delegate Congress, there were whispers of a grand scheme to outcast all persons from the Volta region from the all national executives positions.
An allegation we ignored until midway the congress where all evidence showed Mr. Mahama and his corhots were pushing this divisive agenda.
If we could recall, during the submission of nomination forms for National Youth Organiser position, Mr. Ellekim Kototo, a son from the Volta region was disqualified without any substantial reason only to pave way for an Akan face to win that elections and sadly, the few who went through suffered in the hands of Mahama's fight for supremacy.
As part of Mr. Mahama grand scheme to hijack the NDC, he orchestrated these;
1. Outcast the Volta caucus from the National fronts, because he believes that would reduce the relevance of the Founder of our party, who is a Voltarian;
2. Get his favourites elected to strategic national positions, so he can hijack the NDC for years.
All these allegations were confirmed considering how Ex President Mahama, now flagbearer hopeful supported the campaign of all aspirants who contested against anybody from the Volta region, with the likes of Sammy Gyemfi, Akamba and the others benefiting so well.
A sad reality that is detrimental to the unity and fortunes of the NDC in 2020 and beyond.
It is sad how he fished out huge sums of money and as well seek for support from his appointees to candidates who were contested against a Voltarian during the just ended congress.
Mr. Mahama neither recognised the Volta region during his time as President and it's sad he has finally succeeded at outcasting all Voltarians from the National Executives face.
But, if the NDC thinks it can't stand enough without the Founder and the Volta caucus we live to see.

Please leave Peace FM out of this. It was Anita who started this ***barred word*** and it has been repeated by the so-called founder of the party. What goes around comes around. It has serve the Ewes in the NDC well. When they were doing the tribal politics some of us told them to stop.
another divisive ***barred word*** on the loose. always dancing to the song of the govt and ever willing to give them ammunition to fire the NDC.
Why cry over over spilled milk?
See this yakame and gbemela. Bow your head in shame. Koshia
It is rather unfortunate that my people from the Volta are realizing their folly a bit too late Hahahahahahahahaha and I'm very happy with the turn out of events. I hate to say "I Told You So"! Currently, John Dramani Mahama is the "Richest" man in the NDC and when he sneezes the rank and file of the party catches cold. He will use the same strategy to make himself their flag-bearer and after that shut everyone else who is not on his side up completely......The coming days will be so interesting, just wait and see. I'm going to get my popcorn and coke HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
@Avoke. l am a typical Ga. Gas don't get themselves involved in politics. Tell me in Accra (Ga land) how many gas do politics. only a few and have allowed the Akans to dominate us. Check most of the constituencies in Accra have Akans as their MPs. Most Gas are lazy people they don't educate their children well to aspire big position besides they pulling themselves down (PHD).
Let's advise ourselves Ga's.
Is Edem saying his position as at now doesn't count? Oh! Please let us be mindful of our comments. Everybody counts.
The more you hate Mahama, the more he get loved. The more you rain curses on him, the more he attracts God's blessing. Can't you see? If you decide to fight someone who has God's own anointing, you should know you're fighting a fruitless battle. Get this early so you don't waste your time and energy on this Volta Thing. Dela Coffie tried some silly thing, but backfired into his face and put off many more people who would have voted for Koku.
This is the most ***barred word*** irresponsible comment i ever heard from the voltage caucus. Am a true son of volta and i feel so disappointed in this comment. It's a shame to ndc and as a voltarian.
