Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang has called on head potters not to allow themselves to be disrespected.

Her comments come after the New Patriotic Party's(NPP) General Secretary, John Boadu, said only head potters will recognise her in public if she decided to take a tour in Accra, indicating that she was unpopular and not recognizable among Ghanaians.
