HC Deb 20 March 1940 vol 358 c1963
21. Mr. Sorensen

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he is aware that Enoch Azu, four other electors and eight elders of the State of Manya Krobo in the Eastern Province of the Gold Coast Colony, have been convicted as political prisoners for playing on the drums in their own houses; what is the reason for this conviction and what is its political character?

Mr. M. MacDonald

No, Sir. I have, however, asked the Governor for a report and will communicate with the hon. Member on receipt of his reply.
