Rawlings can?t save Okumkom ? Assembly



The Independent in a front page story says the battle for the removal of Nana Akwasi Agyeman, alias ?Okumkom?, the Kumasi Metropolitan Chief Executive, is raging on with the 46 elected Assembly Members sticking to their guns.



The paper says the 46 Assembly Members who are calling for the removal of Nana Akwasi Agyeman, have ruled out any intervention no matter where it is coming from, not even from President Jerry Rawlings.



The Assembly Members are also reported to have cautioned that no amount of machinations from either the President or NDC gurus would save Nana Akwasi Agyeman from being removed from office.



The Independent says the members have therefore advised the Metropolitan Chief Executive to resign honourably.
