Vote buying stopped Togbe Afede’s National House of Chief second-term bid – Ho-Dome Queen Mother alleges

The Queen Mother of Ho-Dome in the Asogli Traditional Area, Mama Atrato II, has alleged that vote buying prevented Togbe Afede XIV from seeking a second term as President of the National House of Chiefs."And we pray that when the vote-buying system is abolished, we will get the rightful people to be put in certain places and to lobby for the region to be developed," she said.

Mama Atrato II expressed optimism that scrapping the delegate system would improve representation and ensure that capable individuals are elected to champion the development needs of their regions.
