Speaking to the media after the election held on Thursday, 15 October 2020 at the Volta Regional House of Chiefs in Ho, Togbe Tepre said he will ensure that activities of the House are computerised, among other interventions.
“We are going to make some improvements and changes to the generality of the business of the house.
“So, we are hopeful that as we start a new chapter, we will do what it takes to make the House progress.
“I think computerisation of our records, improvement in staff training and a lot more,” he said.
He also stressed the need for political neutrality to be maintained among chiefs.
“We have always maintained our political neutrality and we think that the decision of the Volta Regional House of Chiefs was to the effect that they will not allow anybody to interfere with the political neutrality of the House and that is what we established today by this elections,” Togbe Tepre Hodo IV noted.
