The Supreme Court has, in a unanimous decision, dismissed a case challenging the government’s decision to permit Metropolitan, Municipal and District Chief Executives (MMDCE’s) to remain in office in an acting capacity.
Member of Parliament for South-Dayi, Rockson-Nelson Dafeamekpor, had contended that the government’s directive was contrary to the constitution.
President Akufo-Addo, at the commencement of his second term, asked MMDCEs to remain in office in an acting capacity as he undertook consultations towards making substantive appointments.
The legislator through his lawyers led by Nii Kpakpo Samoa Addo took the matter to the Apex Court.
