PAUL AFOKO TO GO TO COURT-NANA YAW OSEI

-

The embattled National Chairman of the NPP, Paul Afoko has finally decided to seek redress in the law court. 

His Spokesperson, Nana Yaw Osei, disclosed this in an interview in Accra today. Nana Yaw Osei explained that the decision of Mr. Afoko to resort to the court is because of his mistrust of the internal party structures to fairly address his problems considering how he has been treated so far.

 He said already, Mr. Afoko has started the processes to seek assistance of the law court.

 Nana Yaw Osei said also that the decision of the suspended National Chairman of the NPP is also to insist on the rule of law and test the Constitution of the party saying that Mr. Afoko has not been given enough opportunity in the party’s attempt to resolve the wrangling.

 He described the entire disciplinary proceedings against Mr. Afoko as illegal which should not be allowed to stand. 

He therefore disagreed with the flagbearer of the party, Nana Addo Dankwa Akuffo Addo’s advice to party faithful to respect the suspension decision of the National Executive Committee. 

The Spokesperson described Mr. Afoko as one of the most vilified members of the NPP since he declared his intentions to contest the National Chairmanship position. 

He was the first party member to have been referred to the Interpol by the party of which he is a member for no wrong done. 

Nana Yaw Osei refuted all the allegations leveled against Mr. Afoko adding that the man is determined to succeed as the National Chairman of the NPP.

THE STATE OF KUMASI'S 'INDUSTRIAL AREA

-
The once Industrial enclave of the Ashanti region within the Kumasi metropolis is fast losing its status as the nerve centre of jobs for the people.     This is due to the collapse of most of the companies in quick succession in  the last few years for various reasons. Background Industrialization was a key component of the first wholly indigenous government of Ghana led by Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah. The Ashanti region was not left out in this drive which was meant to create decent jobs for the residents, particularly the youth.  Asokwa, Ahinsan, Kaase, Atonsu and Kyirapatre were the communities that became what is known as the ‘Industrial Area’ of Ashanti from the early 60s.  The christening of this enclave as the ‘Industrial Area’ was the people’s appreciation of the numerous state and privately owned companies that were sited there.  These communities fall within present day Asokwa Constituency which is in the western part of the metropolis from the Accra d

KWAMANG SHS NEEDS URGENT HELP

New Campus of the Kwamang Presby SHS The Kwamang Presby Senior High/Technical School in the Sekyere Central district of Ashanti needs an urgent external intervention to address some of its pressing basic needs to function very well.  A visit by Ashanti Today to the school’s premises revealed that the school does not have an administrative block to administer affairs of the school for which reason the Headmistress, the Bursar and another staff are sharing one room which has been partitioned, while the Assistant Headmaster, the rest of the Accounts staff among other administrative officers are also working from an improvised classroom. Anybody who visits the Kwamang Presby Senior High Technical school for the first time will unavoidably take it for a basic school.  This is more so when it appears to be perching on the premises of the local Junior High School as its old site.  The school is wallowing in a myriad of challenges that are seriously militating against
