Chiefs at Asebu-Kwamankese calls for the dismissal of DCE

Abura-Dunkwa (C/R), Nov. 11, GNA - The woes of Ms Aba Edusah, District Chief Executive (DCE) of Abura-Asebu-Kwamankese, had compounded as the chiefs and youth from the area, had joined dissident assembly members calling for her dismissal.

A press statement signed by Mr Ekow Abban Quarshie, a youth leader, alleged that since the DCE assumed office, she had displayed very poor working relationship with the personnel of the assembly, executives and members of the ruling National Democratic Congress as well as the traditional authorities.

It said her hostile attitude had stifled development in the district. The statement said series of attempts by assembly members, party executives and well-meaning citizens to persuade her to be more civil in her dealings had failed.

"Your Excellency, we are therefore appealing to you to remove Aba Edusah from office to enhance peace and development in the District." Efforts by the Ghana News Agency to verify the allegations failed since Ms Edusah was not available in her office while her phone had been switched off.
