The Ashanti Regional Secretary of the ruling NDC, Lawyer Abass Nurudeen, has refuted claim that Ashanti Region has been left out of the ministerial appointments.
On his Facebook page, he said this is completely premature and mischievous since there has not been any from other regions like Upper West, Oti and Western North.
He wrote, “All these strategic ministries are still up for grabs.
1.Lands and Natural Resources
2.Defence
3.Works and Housing
4.Sports
5.Interior
6.Foreign Affairs
7.Health
8.Communications
9.Environment,Science and Technology
For those of you who don’t know, Ashanti is not like any other region.”
Nurudeen added that “There are a lot of traditional and customary protocols that must be obeyed before political appointees are named in the Ashanti Region. Ashanti will definitely not be left out.
“Ashanti will get it fair share in due course. The best is always reserved for last,” he assured.
