Wode Maya visits Volta Region's fearsome town, Nogokpo

Popular Ghanaian YouTuber Wode Maya recently visited Nogokpo, a small town in the Volta Region, to uncover why it’s feared by many.

Known for its spiritual practices, Nogokpo is a place that highly values honesty and justice.

The town’s chief explained that Nogokpo stands firm against dishonesty, stealing, and gossiping. It’s a place where telling the truth is the most important thing.

A town elder further explained that the name “Nogokpo” means, "Will you be here quietly?"

This reflects the town's expectation for visitors to respect their customs and traditions. Breaking these rules, they said, could lead to serious consequences.

One interesting tradition Wode Maya witnessed was the town’s custom of walking barefoot in certain areas. This practice is tied to their deep spiritual beliefs.

Nogokpo has gained a reputation for its strictness, and just hearing its name makes many people uneasy.
