The Kyidomhene of Gomoa Ajumako traditional area who doubles as the Benkumhene of Gomoa Dabenyin, Nana Barima Owusu I has expressed worry about how some chiefs openly partake in partisan politics in recent times. According to him, this act disgraces the chieftaincy institution which is also a recipe for chaos. In his words "Chiefs are fathers of their subjects and are supposed to be neutral. Engaging in partisan politics through your utterances or activities shows you have already chosen a side which will make it difficult for others to approach you. You will have some of your subjects belonging to NDC and NPP so how do you as a father declare your support for one side?" He further added that one of the key functions of chiefs is to adjudicate disputes and during the adjudication, you must be seen as a neutral chief, not a politically biased one. "No matter how fair you are in adjudicating a matter, if you are politically biased you won't be taken serious.
