Accra, Oct. 2, GNA – The Ga Dangme Council of
Wulomei have called on its members to carry themselves in a manner that would
bring honour to their positions and strive to show respect to each and every
one.

It also cautioned the members to be wary of
politicians who want to induce them with money to create confusion among them and
rather focus on defending their customary rites.

Numo Blafo Omeatu III, the President of the
Council, made the call in an interview with the Ghana News Agency at the 25th
Anniversary celebration of the installation of Numo Nikoi Amasah II, Klan Wulomo
of the Asere Kotopon in Accra.

He said there was the need for Wulomei to
educate the public on the role they played during and after the installation of
a chief in the Ga State and the importance of that customary rite. 

Numo Blafo Omeatu cautioned people who were
making moves to cause confusion among the Wulomei to desist from the act in
order to bring peace in the Ga Dangme Traditional Area.

He said the chieftaincy institution in the Ga
State was disintegrating, saying; “It is unfortunate that some few elements are
using the situation to make money by dictating and imposing new methods of
customary rites during and after the installation of traditional leaders, which
had created chaos among the people.”

He said the Council would ensure that no one
was allowed to destroy the norms and the traditions of the Ga people,
especially during the induction processes of a traditional leader.

Numo Nikoi Amasah, also the Vice President of
the Council, advised that any person or group of persons who feel they have
legitimate right to any traditional position in the Ga State should channel it
through the Council for solution.

He said: “Until that is done people should
stop spreading false information about the importance of the Wulomei’s rites
and appealed to the media to ensure that they check their facts before going
public to avoid creating confusion and tension among the Council members.”
