Atwima Nwabiagya Assembly Members pass vote of no confidence


Some Assembly members of the Atwima Nwabiagya district have threatened to pass a vote of no confidence on their District Chief Executive for what they say are cases of misconduct on the part of the District Chief Executive.

The agitated Assembly members disclosed that the District Chief Executive has been disregarding the District’s procedure in awarding contract at the assembly. They cited he awards contract without the notice of the members of the Assembly.

They further accused him of misappropriation of funds and poorly administering the institutions set off by the assembly.

The members implored the government not to renege on their decision to kick him out of office. They said such misdemeanor dents the performance of the Assembly.

A member of the Assembly, Hon. Enoch Afriyie, endorsed the concerns of the Assembly and called for an emergency meeting. He confirmed the allegation that the District Chief Executive had snatched away a generator supposed to serve the needs of the Assembly.

Hon. Enoch Afriyie stressed they would match the District Chief Executive boot for boot to ensure his removal from office.

The Assembly has forwarded a document to the Electoral Commission and the District Coordination Council of the Atwima Nwabigya to corroborate their claims and appealed to the two regulatory entities to give their misgivings a maximum attention.
