The President of the Volta Regional House of Chiefs, Togbui Afede XIV has said they will support legitimate claims by any region for a share of \u00a0revenue from the natural resources in their region.<\/p>\n

This follows the concerns by the Western Regional House of Chiefs for a percentage of the oil cash which has sparked debate in parliament.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”izKZSgiIOEVofJODn8GrF8pjmdLelfPH”]Contrary to reports that the chiefs in Volta were not behind the Western Region chiefs, the Volta chiefs said they would not hesitate to support any legitimate demand<\/strong><\/span><\/a> by any region for their share\u00a0of the national revenue.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Citi News,<\/strong>the President of the Volta Regional House of Chiefs Togbui Afede XIV said \u2018\u2019we are worried about national interests and of course\u00a0our own interest but not about individual regional matters. Besides we\u00a0support any legitimate claims by any region for a share of what is\u00a0exploited in their region.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019 I have read various arguments from parliamentarians who have opposed to\u00a0the giving of a share of the oil revenue for various reasons. And I don\u2019t\u00a0think Volta people have that power to influence a decision whether to give\u00a0or not to give,\u2019\u2019 he added.<\/p>\n

The Vice President of the Western Regional House of Chiefs, Nana Kwesi\u00a0Agyemang was said to have threatened to strongly oppose any attempt by\u00a0chiefs in the Volta to demand their share of revenue from a likely\u00a0exploration of oil reserves in the Volta Basin.<\/p>\n
