The chiefs of Somè Traditional Council led by their Paramount Chief and president Torgbigah Adamah III, on 28th May 2024 issued a press statement in reaction to a document been circulates by Torgbi Sri III, the Awoamefia of Anlo to the Minister for chieftaincy and Religious Affairs caption ” CREATION OF NEW TRADITIONAL COUNCIL AND ELEVATION OF PARAMOUNT CHIEFS IN ANLO DUKOR” in Somè Fugo Traditional Council townships namely, ADAFIENU, XEDZRANAWO and DENU.
According to Torgbigah Adamah III, the president of Somè Traditional Council Somèawo are not part of the Anloawo even at Notsie that all they lived in different quarters, the Somèawo then referred to as Agudzeawo lived separately from the Anlos then, know as the Dogbo-Nyiboawo. And it only that as they all have migrated separately, but passing through the same route hopefully to settle in comfort land.
But now “we the Somèawo, are at loss to what locus or capacity Torgbi Sri III has, calling for the creation of traditional council and elevation of Somè stools to his paramouncy. Even as we speak the 1992 Constitution and Chieftaincy ACT, ACT 279 OF 2008 do not conformed to, such powers. So we wish to warn our brothers who are helping the Anlos in their agenda to destabilize Somè to disease from doing that, for they are biting more than what they can chew” he added.
