Togbe Afede XIV who welcomed the delegation applauded the efforts by the group to see to it that they fight for the general development of Volta region and urged them to move on with a united front, adding that, a real social force such as this has been absent in the scheme of affairs in the region for far too long and happily welcomes One Volta group (OVG) as coming to the rescue.

Agbogbomefia also tasked the group to assiduously work for the cohesion and effective social interaction among the chiefs and people of the region and was emphatic that, this will lay a solid foundation for sustainable peace, prosperity and developments that the regions desires.

The astute Traditional ruler also motivated the team not to be cowards in the face of challenges but to stand firm and fair in their demands and dealings with politicians on all sides and be wary/cautious of saboteurs from within and outside their ranks.

Togbe Afede XIV intimated that, it is very demoralising to observe that, as a people we are yet to appreciate the efforts of some selfless individuals and leaders let alone encourage them but rather join others to mock and castigate exemplary deeds, thereby killing selflessness and good initiatives.
He said Voltarians need to courageously take steps to defend the group at all times and support their agenda,
“Yes, there may be saboteurs but yours is to remain focus and achieve your aim, “ he said.
