The Youth of the Volta Region of Ghana have called on the management of Metro Tv to dismiss Paul Adom Otchere with immediate effect.
According to the group, VOLTA YOUTH NETWORK (VYN), recent edition of Good Evening Ghana hosted by Paul Adom Otchere on the ex-gratia amount paid Togbe Afede which his returned back into the public purse is unwarranted and shocking.
In a statement signed by the convenor of the group, Mr. Richard Fidel Agbeko Castro called on Dr. Joseph Siaw Agyepong and Management of Metro TV to sack Paul Adom Otchere with immediate effect, lest they become accomplices in the conduct of this unfit character and for which they shall advice themselves.

“The Volta Youth Network therefore calls on Dr. Joseph Siaw Agyepong and Management of Metro TV to sack Paul Adom Otchere with immediate effect, lest they become accomplices in the conduct of this unfit character and for which we shall advice ourselves accordingly.”
We remain at a loss why the rude attacks on Torgbe Afede XIV, for doing the rightful thing by returning to the State, an ex-gratia payment he rightly considered being unmerited, and in his believing that such precious and scarce resources are better spent on critical areas of our economy that needs critical governmental attention. Though unfortunate, we are not surprised because of the current state of our Nation Ghana, where state machinery is in the forefront of reckless grabbing of State resources by state officials and their assigns.

We wish to state clearly that Chiefs are the embodiment of the spirit and souls of the people they lead and so any attack on them especially when they act in consonance with the belief and values of their custom and societies, is an attack on the people they lead. We also further state that we revere our Chiefs and so will not tolerate valueless people who think the media space they occupy is an avenue to denigrate others to attack, malign and denigrate them .
The Volta Youth Network finds Paul Adom Otchere’s sizzling attack on the revered Chief; His Royal Highness Togbe Afede XIV the Agbogbomefia of the Asogli State unwarranted, unacceptable and an affront to the Youth and people of the Volta Region. We shall do everything within the laws to prevent further provocation from individuals like Paul Adom Otchere and others like him.
