Togbe Afede XIV (born James Akpo), the Agbogbomefia of the Asogli State in the Volta Region, has shared an unpleasant experience he and other chiefs from the region endured during a visit to the Jubilee House, the seat of government, in 2020.
The former President of the National House of Chiefs, addressing a durbar held in honor of former President as part of his thank-you tour of the Volta Region on Friday, January 24, 2025, recounted how he and the other chiefs were humiliated at the Presidency.
