Mr Effah,Board Chairman,announced earlier before the election that a Board member, Mr Albert Inkoom, resigned in April this year, thus creating a vacancy to be filled at the AGM.

Mr Effah disclosed that they have, therefore, expressed their willingness to continue in office and would present themselves to the shareholders to give them the mandate to continue or step down.

The five members therefore contested in the Breman Asikuma and Brakwa Zones.

The contestants for the elections for the Breman Asikuma Zone were Mr John Dickson, who polled 77 votes, while Mr Eric Ofori polled 545 to replace Mr Inkoom.

In the Brakwa Zone,Mr Anthony Effah polled 282 votes, Mr Paa Kwesi Annin Sampson had 155 votes, while Mr Samuel Evans Ampomah secured 216 votes.

The elected directors were Mr Ofori for Asikuma Zone, Mr Effah and Mr Ampomah for Brakwa Zone.
