He also urged Voltarians to emulate the independence struggle of people like Gbedemah, who singlehandedly kept the revolution alive.

“Your ancestors fought for independence. Singlehandedly, Gbedemah kept the revolution alive when Nkrumah was jailed. No one is asking more from you.

Boo the president,” he said.
