A pro -NPP youth group calling itself Concerned Youth of Suhum in the Suhum Municipality of the Eastern region has commenced actions to ensure that the Municipal Chief Executive, MCE, for the area, Margaret Darko Darkwa is kicked out of office.
The youth are calling on President Akufo-Addo not to reappoint Margaret Darko Darkwa as Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) of Suhum in the Eastern region.
A statement issued by the youth group claimed that the MCE is incompetent and disrespectful creating divisions among the rank and file of the party and grassroots.
“This is a woman who brought many cracks among the rank and file of the party, verbally assaulting the constituency chairman and other constituency executives. She doesn’t accord the traditional leaders with the needed respect and the youth as a whole, hence the appeal to the president not to reappoint her.”
They added “One must ask why she couldn’t get a Presiding Member during the last assembly. The assembly members were just sending a signal to her and the municipality that she can’t lead them again and we think this will replicate if her name is mentioned again. Her poor human relationship, abuse of power, vindictiveness, vilification, amassing of wealth, and her selfish nature has cost the municipality a lot,” the statement noted.
The youth mostly NPP Members warned that it would be doom for the NPP should the MCE be re-nominated.
“We are pleading with President Akufo-Addo to consider the views of the people in the constituency and the constituency executives before appointing a different person instead of retaining Mrs. Margaret Darko Darkwa”, they said.
“We urge the Appointments Committee and the President to use independent sources to seek the concerns and feelings of the party members in the constituency rather than relying on people who wield some seeming influence in the constituency, they emphasized.
