Allotey Jacobs to beg Denkyira Traditional Council on behalf of MCEs
The Central Regional Chairman of the governing
National Democratic Congress (NDC) has indicated
he will lead a delegation to the Denkyira
Traditional Council to plead on behalf of the two
of its members.

Bernard Allotey Jacob said the outburst of the
Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) of the Upper
Denkyira East and the District Chief Executive
(DCE) of the Upper Denkyira West in which they
tainted the image of the queen mother of the land
was uncalled for.

“We have decided to approach the queen
mother’s divisional chiefs to talk them out of
the issue,’ he said.

The Denkyira Traditional Council in the Central
Region invoked its great oath on the MCE of Upper
Denkyira East, Emelia Ankomah and the DCE of Upper
Denkyira West, Ambrose Ashia for attacking the
Queen mother of Denkyira, Nana Ama Ayensua Saara
III over her comments during the visit of
flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Nana
Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.

Speaking to the NPP leader, Nana Ama Ayensua
Saara III lamented the low attention her community
has received from the government because she has
been branded an NPP.

This was enough to court the displeasure of the
two government appointees who rained on invectives
the Queen mother for involving herself in
politics.


Reacting to the issue on Joynews, Mr
Allotey-Jacobs said even though the behavior of
the Queen mother was uncalled for, the two MCEs
were not supposed to have done what they did.

According to him, the NDC government is doing a
lot in the Central Region, noting what the Queen
Mother said about neglect was not true.

The government is ready to fix all the deplorable
roads in the Region, he said adding they are
looking for “competent contractor” to execute
the contract.
