The separatist group that declared independence for Western Togoland is heading for the United Nations to demand recognition.
Over the weekend the Homeland Study Group Foundation declared independence for the Volta, and parts of the Northern, North Eastern and Upper East Regions after its meeting held in Ho.
HSGF had over the years been demanding the secession of the above-mentioned areas from Ghana to become the Western Togoland state.
In May 2019, some members of the group were arrested by the police and charged with conspiracy to commit treason felony, abetment of unlawful training, unlawful assembly and offensive conduct conducive to the breach of peace.
Speaking to Starr News Spokesperson for HSGF George Nyakpo said the Western Togoland has never been part of Ghana and has not been a British colony hence there was no basis to add it to its colony Gold Coast.
He added that the ‘Western Togoland State’ will notify the United Nations of their independence and seek recognition and will require a lot of support from the world body to succeed.

Mutual respect is necessary for our coexistence. I am an Ashanti and l want to tell you Duse Robert to respect us as you want us to do to you. Do unto others as you want them to you . Hatred will not end us anywhere in this modern world. Learn to preach peace and unity other than division. I am a proud Ashanti, be a proud Voltarian and let us leave together in peace. As I will not be disrespectful to the good people from Volta Region, so do you not be to the people from Ashanti. It is shameful on your part Duse to have that mindset.
These actions of the group could land it in jail. The constitution of Ghana is clear.
This is a reality of youngest state in the world we have been neglected for too long time and only have access to government only by military intervention no body hears as when we cry ordinary person on the street of Ghana particularly Ashanti will look you in the face tell you, you are not a "real Ghanaian" we are tired of this boshit. Our roads pose a treat to Kumasi linking the North so the Akans thus not want us to benefit in anyway. If this is not accepted the revolution will be too much for the work to carry because we will go all out.Long live WESTERN TOGOLAND
