Kwame Adom-Appiah was nominated for the position
The appointment of the new executive director of the Sekyere East district, Kwame Adom-Appiah, has been withdrawn.
A letter signed by a Deputy Minister of Local Government and Rural Development and spotted by Dailymailgh.com confirmed the withdrawal on Thursday, September 24, 2020.
No reasons were assigned for the decision.
This comes one day after President Akufo-Addo revoked the appointment of a former DCE for the Mary Boatemaa area.
No further explanation was added to the revocation of his appointment, but sources tell Dailymailgh.com that the development is in relation to an audio recording quoting Madame Boatemaa from pitching the electorates against the Effiduase / Asokore MP. , Dr. Ayew Afriyie.
She is the second DCE to have been fired by President Akufo-Addo months after Amansie South DCE William Asante Bediako suffered similar circumstances.
She was also caught on tape campaigning for an independent candidate who, according to most party stalwarts, could jeopardize the electoral fortunes of the ruling party in the constituency.
He is also said to have used non-printable words against the person from the traditional Mponuahene area of Asokore, who is also the head of Okaikrom, Nana Akwantey Boffour.
Mrs. Mary Boatemaa Marfo’s gross misconduct was a clear violation of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s incessant calls for all PNP loyalists to desist from such a treacherous act.
The district assembly members took up arms against the flagrant insubordination of Mrs. Mary Boatemaa Marfo.
According to the aggrieved assembly members, it has become a thorn in the flesh of the residents of the district.
Members of the assembly in a statement accused the DCE of violating hiring rules and awarded false contracts to their cronies.
One of the assemblymen, Atta Duruye Ernest, in a live interview on the Accra-based NEAT FM political show ‘The Torch Light’, called for immediate investigations into the DCE’s questionable behavior.
On December 18, 2019, the Accra-based Peace Fm reported that the Effiduase-Asokore DCE attacked the 78-year-old Mponuahene of the Asokore Traditional Council.
The angry boss narrated that Mrs. Mary Boatemaa Marfo pushed him after a heated argument about whether the member of the [MP] for the area, Dr. Nana Ayew Afriyie should participate in the inauguration of a health center in OKaikrom, a suburb of the municipality of Asokore.
The Chief confirmed that the hard-working legislator completed and furnished the magnificent health center that was abandoned in 2007 at the initiative of the late former MP, Ms. Grace Coleman in 2007.
Mrs. Mary Boatemaa Marfo insisted that he, the deputy, Dr. Nana Ayew Afriyie, should not be invited to honor the opening ceremony.
“My disagreement led to a close fight. The DCE pushed me and I almost fell to the ground ”, said the Chief.
