Papavi’s death and implication on Homeland Study Group Foundation (HSGF)
Earlier this month, security analyst, Adam Bonaa asked the country’s National Security Ministry and other related security agencies to continue to monitor the activities of separatists in the country following the death of their leader.
The leader and founder of the Homeland Study Group Foundation (HSGF), Charles Kormi Kudjordji, popularly known as Papavi was reported dead on Friday, October 15, 2021.
Prior to his death, the 87-year-old was standing was on the police wanted list for leading a secessionist group that was championing the separation of the “Western Togoland” from Ghana.
Speaking on his death in an interview with GhanaWeb, Adam Bonaa noted that any interpretation of Papavi’s death to mean the end of the separatist movement by security agencies will be fatal to the national security of Ghana.
“If we underestimate his death and think that the death of Paapavi ends the agitations from the point of view of the separatist movement then we will be laughing at the wrong side of our mouths,” Adam Bonaa stated.
