It is becoming very worrying, as I think about our inability to differentiate between birthright positions such as chieftaincy and political appointments.
Today, I want us to look at this trend, to enable us to start a big conversation on the way forward.

Folks, let's start a conversation as to how we can get the most out of people entrusted with political positions.
My name is Nana Ansah Kwao IV. My people demand a lot from me, birthright or not.
Tune in to Joy 99.7 FM at 7 pm tonight. I need your help on this one.
