President Akufo-Addo’s nominee for the position of metropolitan chief executive, Mohammed Adjei Sowah has received massive endorsement from assembly members of the Accra Metropolitan Assembly.
He obtained 109 votes representing 100 percent of the total votes cast on Thursday.
Although 126 assembly members and government appointees were expected to cast their ballot for the exercise, some did not turn up.
According to TV3’s Michael Addo, who covered the election, the usual chaos that characterizes such events was absent as assembly members comported themselves throughout the exercise.
Mohammed Adjei Sowah is a former Greater Accra Regional Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
Mohammed Adjei Sowah is among the first batch of chief executives named by the president for four major cities – Accra, Kumasi, Tamale and Sekondi-Takoradi
Osei Assibey Antwi who was nominated for the Kumasi Metropolitan Assembly (KMA) was this week endorsed by his assembly.
