Respect Akufo-Addo’s choice of MMDCEs – Western Region NPP The Western Regional Secretary of the New
Patriotic Party, Charles Onuawonto Cromwell
Bissue, has admonished party supporters who did
not see their favorite persons nominated for the
Metropolitan, Municipal and District Chief
Executive positions to remain calm and respect the
president’s decision.
According to Mr. Bissue, a presidential staffer,
supporters of persons who were not appointed
should support those nominated to help the
president to fix the economy instead of resorting
to acts that will distract government business.
Speaking in an interview with Citi News, Mr.
Bissue said, “I think competence should be the
benchmark and not on ethnic lines. The President
cannot appoint two persons at the same time.”
“Let’s all know that the persons who have been
appointed now also have followers, so if the
President comes to change them now, their
supporters will also agitate similarly.
That will divert the attention of the managers of
the country.” Mr. Bissue continued that “we
have to respect the president’s decision.
When we went to the December polls, over 4 million
Ghanaians did not vote for us, but does that mean
those 4 million who did not want NPP should be on
the streets to demonstrate against us?
I do not think that’s what we want. Just wait
for your time.” He called on youth groups in the
Mpohor and Jomoro districts in the region who are
agitating over the president’s decision to
nominate some individuals, to remain calm as
“there are other opportunities which need to be
filled. When it’s your turn and you qualify, no
one will prevent you.”
