An Executive Member of the 31st December Women’s Movement, Madam Sherry Ayitey, has revealed that Former First Lady Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings is no longer a member of the association.

In an interview monitored by MyNewsGh.com, the former Minister of Fisheries and Aquaculture Development believes the exit of Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings was borne out of personal decisions.

“If you are tired of being a member of a group, you are free to leave so she did what she could as a president and now we have an interim management committee who are steering the affairs of the committee,” she said on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem.

She added that despite the role she played, she is no longer with the movement but work will continue.

Madam Sherry Ayitey stressed the former First Lady’s exit from the movement does not make them enemies, adding, “if you are tired of being a member of a group, you are free to go”.

Mrs. Rawlings, before her exit, was the president for the women’s movement which seeks to support and promote empowerment through education.
