Reports: Asona Dehyie, Nkwanta -South.
Nkwanta -South Youth Association says on Monday 14th July 2025 they got inforation through the Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) that they should come over for some relief items that the Nkwanta South MP, Hon. Geofrey Kinilo had procured for them.
The items were meant to be shared for the victims of the recent attacks and shooting incidents at Keri, Pawa, and Bonakye towns within Nkwanta -South in the Oti Region.
The president of the Association Mr Peter Ntasah in an exclusive interview with the correspondent said though the news appears to be a kind and thoughtful gesture coming from the Hon. Member of Parliament, the youth were sorry to reject it.
According to them the tems coming from the Honourable MP had an alleged secret behind.
With the secret that prompted for the rejection of the items the Association boldly reminded the Honourable MP to know that kindness that hides behind itself is malicious, and intent to harm is no kindness.
President Peter Ntasah indicated that the Akyodes group of whose members were recently brutalized in a land litigation belongs to the Association, the Mp failed to visit them at their hospital beds after the said brutalities.
And therefore they cannot be deceived by the Mp’s alleged current ostensible kindness apparently designed to conceal his bias and clandestine manoeuvres in support of the agenda to wipe Akyodes away from Nkwanta.
Has the MP not demonstrated enough that he is in bed with Adeles and Challas group who brutalized the Akyode group in the ongoing land conflict, the youth questioned.
Has he allegedly forgotten that he is working tirelessly to help the other faction to eliminate the Akyode group including the youth from Nkwanta and seize the Nkwanta lands for the other faction just as he promised in the run-up to the 2024 Parliamentary Elections?
Posing more questions, the youth group further asked was it not the reason why Adeles group in the midst of the conflict installed him (the Mp) as a Development Chief?
Why then does the Mp wanted to pretend that he is a friend and father of all including Akyodes and the Youth Association ?.
Mr Peter Ntasah reiterated that the Nkwanta -South Youth Association
takes exception to this alleged cunningness of character.
Just in case the Honourable MP has forgotten his stand in the ongoing conflict in Nkwanta, we want to ask further for his possible public reaction the following questions listed below:
1. Where was he when Adeles and Challas in a press conference held at Nkwanta on Tuesday, 24th October 2023, threatened to kill Akyodes following plans to celebrate our annual yam festival—which was not a new thing to him (MP)?
Did he care that the lives of Akyodes and by extension the good people of Nkwanta were in danger?
2. Where was the MP when Adeles shot a poor innocent Akyode man in his house on Saturday, 28th October 2023, because of the celebration?
Did it appear to him that a human being had been killed?
3. Where was the Honourable MP when Adeles, Challas, and their alleged thugs seized Nkwanta for three weeks on 28th October to 19th November 2023—burning and destroying the houses, shops, cars, and other valuable properties of Akyodes in Nkwanta?
4. Where was the MP when Adeles and Challas sent alleged thugs including his bodyguard in town, Mr. Alidu Musah (SURAJ), and other men in police uniform to allegedly attack and kill some Akyodes in the market on 20th November 2023, which resulted in reprisals as the Akyodes stood in defence?
5. Where was the MP when his bodyguard, SURAJ, allegedly seized the police station, telling them who to arrest and who not to arrest in connection with the conflict that had erupted—when he himself is an accomplice?
How did his bodyguard Suraj wield such powerful influence over the police?
6. Where was the MP when State Security, led by the police, went on a hunting spree for Akyodes arresting and intimidating them for a conflict that was instigated by Adeles and Challas under his alleged watch.
While the latter walked freely in town? Were Adeles and Challas not being protected because of their affiliation with him?
On this note Mr Peter Ntasah want the Honourable MP to know that he is not a friend to us, and must not carry himself as such.
We know all his secret dealings and support for the fight against us, and we cannot be fooled by his deceitful kindness.
What is the worth of a bag of rice coming from the man who eats and dines with the very people who have inflicted so much pain on us and have proven beyond words that they are a threat to our very survival?
What is a bag of rice to a people who have been falsely tagged as criminals just because the majority of them are not affiliated with the party in government?
What is a bag of rice to people whom the Honourable MP, in collaboration with the Regional Minister, MCE, and Police Command, are using state security to arrest, intimidate, and drive away from their homes—only for others (Adeles and Challas) to burn and destroy them?
What is a bag of rice to people whose relatives state security operatives, at the behest of the Honourable MP, have arrested and taken to unknown destinations for no apparent reason?
What is a bag of rice to a people when you have charged your security operatives to arrest and intimidate them, and they can no longer sit in their own homes—people who are now living in the bush?
What is a bag of rice to innocent people who have been killed because of your unchecked allegiance?
