Efo ‘Juju’ Textbooks Unworthy Of Akufo-Addo’s Gov’t – Catholic Bishops
Head of the Catholic Bishop Conference, The Most Rev Phillip Naameh has chided government over the controversial textbooks that seek to denigrate Ewes in Ghana.
Speaking on TV3, he noted that it is the job of every government to unite its people and not breed grounds for hatred amongst them.
“We should be talking about social cohesion among Ghanaians as one family so if a text book is drawn up in a way that denigrate the dignity of a particular ethnic group, this is something not even worthy of pre-independence situation of Ghana.
“We have come such a long way that no matter what ethnic group is we are growing together into one people. And that should be this strategy of every government to wield the about 52 different ethnic groups into one people.
“So to draw up a text book which seeks to denigrate the dignity of one ethnic group is not worthy of the government at this time.”
