He said, Western North Region from time immemorial has been the food basket for the country, the highest cocoa producers, with lots of natural resources such as gold, bauxite,timber as well as human resources, therefore such a region cannot be called useless and therefore demand an apology from Captain Smart and Media General as a whole.
According to Nana Elluo Panin lll, the chiefs and elders of Western North Region are bent to see their region develop and always doing their best to attract investors, therefore it was wrong for the journalist to wash away their efforts with such an unpalatable description.

be mindful in their response to Captain Smart in order not to spark any ethnic tention.
