After visibly protracted acrimony and conflict or clash of interest in the West Akim Municipality, the Tankamfo Fie and Asamankese chiefs have extended an olive branch to Hon. Seth Oduro Boadu, the Municipality Chief Executive in a symbolic gesture at the Asamankese palace on 2nd August 2022.
At a well-attended pacification ceremony at the Tankamfo Fie, the chiefs led by Asamankese Gyaasehene Oppong Adease and Osabarimah Owusu Nketia, Takrowasehene and flanked by all the subchiefs of the Oboadwan Traditional Council symbolically have slaughtered a sheep as traditions and customs demand to pacify and retract their earlier stance on 23rd January 2021 announcing cut off ties with the Municipal Assembly.
The re-establishment of friendship between the traditional council and the municipal assembly, and in particular with the MCE, Hon. Seth Oduro Boadu is viewed by thousands of residents and indigenes as a sense of exemplary leadership, progress, corporation and unity, and above all a milestone.
It would be recalled that, pro to the reappointment of the Hon. Municipality Chief Executive, Seth Oduro Boadu a group and some chiefs vehemently opposed any attempts of the reappointment amidst several allegations primarily what they labelled as arrogance.
Some other groups including the Centre for the Vulnerable, Concerned Youth of Asamankese, and some religious leaders just to mention but a few, also came to the defence of the MCE calling for his reappointment following the unprecedented development he had embarked on.
Notwithstanding, some chiefs of Asamankese on the 23rd day of January at the Asamankese palace announced symbolically to the entire nation of their willingness to halt any tie or association with the Hon. MCE on grounds of abysmal performance and gloss insubordination slaughtering a sheep to the gods to that end.
