“After her confirmation, the Hon. DCE embarked on a familiarization tour within the District. As worthy as such tours were to the Assembly, our Party could not take the due advantage of same. Party Executives at all levels within the constituency were not informed”.

The report also said, the DCE visited Traditional Chiefs without the usual involvement of Polling Station Executives, Electoral Area Coordinators, and Constituency Executives who are seen as the face of the Party.

“Worse of it all are Traditional Areas, where Assembly Members who are members of the fraternity were not informed. Not even a call from the Constituency Chairman and Executives on her to at least involve Electoral Area Coordinators and Assemble Members sympathetic towards the NPP was heeded to.

Per the report, they believes “the consequences of such action if not addressed will lead to disaffection and apathy among the rank and file of our party in the Constituency.
Meanwhile, the Executives in the report to the Local Government Minister say all their efforts which include several invitations from the Chairman and Elders extended to her for a meeting to resolve all the issues were turned down by the DCE.

The report was released to the media following an accusation by a party member Wilson Dabuo who claimed the former DCE Peter Ayinbisa and executives are attempting to remove the current DCE from office.
