Abla Dzifa Gomashie has emphasized that promoting Fugu should not be seen as a competition against Kente, calling on Ghanaians to move beyond tribal thinking and celebrate the country’s diverse cultural heritage.
In a recent statement, she noted that both Fugu and Kente represent important aspects of Ghana’s identity and history. According to her, efforts to highlight one cultural symbol should not be interpreted as diminishing another.
She urged citizens to embrace unity and appreciate the richness of Ghana’s traditions, stressing that cultural promotion should foster inclusion rather than division.
Her remarks have sparked conversations about national identity and the need to value all cultural expressions across the country without politicizing or tribalizing them.
