One Ghana Network, a Ho-based pressure group, has expressed concern about alleged attacks on political appointees in the Volta Region through the media.
It said the action by a group, calling itself foot soldiers of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) should not be encouraged.
At a press conference in Ho on Wednesday, Mr Eric Afenyo, Convener of the Network, called for an end to the pasting of anonymous letters and posters against the appointees through out the region, saying it was a symptom of "pull him down" attitude.
He noted that such developments would retard the development of the region as the appointees would not have the zeal and motivation to work towards development.
Mr Afenyo said that writing of anonymous letters, hijacking of public facilities, violent and baseless demonstrations were at variance with the exercise of the individual's civic responsibilities.
"What our generation need is industrious, proactive leadership, disciplined and technologically advanced people and not machos and bullies," he emphasized.
Mr Afenyo expressed regret that the region was fast becoming a safe haven for agitations, open attacks and threats on personalities.
He said that though demonstrations were allowed in the country's Constitution, attempts to malign and cause leaders to be removed from office unjustly must be condemned.
Mr Afenyo commended Volta Regional Minister Joseph Amenowode and the Municipal and District Chief Executives for championing the development of the region.
The Convener of the Network called on the people to unite and harness the region's enormous agricultural and agribusiness potentials.
