Mr. Logic passionately expressed his views on the stereotypes surrounding Ewes and their association with the ‘voodoo culture’.
Because of their beliefs and traditions, the Volta area ethnic tribe has frequently been misunderstood and unfavorably labeled.
Mr. Logic, on the other hand, pushed Ewes to embrace their cultural identity with pride. He underlined that charm and ancient wisdom should be regarded as sources of power and strength, rather than something to be embarrassed of.
“Ewes shouldn’t be shy to admit that they possess charm. What is wrong with that? It is what makes them powerful. They have to be proud to be a Voltarian. What will make me marry a Voltarian is the fact that she might have juju. I’ll be proud of it because they’ll say she is powerful. You should be proud of yourselves because you come from a powerful traditional background. We are flesh and blood and what happens in flesh and blood doesn’t even move Jesus”.
The question of Bishop Charles Agyinasare’s experience with the Nogokpo shrine was also brought up throughout the conversation. Mr. Logic told out that such deities usually perform extensive research before making a decision. He emphasized that in Bishop Agyinasare’s instance, it was likely that he had not wronged the deity, resulting in his release.
“Such deities usually conduct research when you bring issues before him. They don’t just go ahead and issue judgment. He hasn’t wronged the diety that’s why he has been set free. He should attempt doing wrong. For instance, he should try and sleep with someone’s wife and see,” he established.
Mr. Logic urged the Ewe people to embrace their roots and heritage, emphasizing that their customs and beliefs are an important part of their identity and should be honored rather than vilified.
