The Ghanaian Chronicle

A centre spread headline of the Ghanaian Chronicle says: "Sekyere East NDC demands District Chief Executive's head...For saying party is unpopular". The accompanying story says a district chief executive's personal assessment of the NDC that the party shall always remain unpopular in Ashanti, has attracted the wrath of party executives who want the District Chief Executive, Mr Kwame De Graft Adjei, out of office. Mr De Graft Adjei is said to have told Mr Kwaku Afram Boateng, an executive member of the party in the Asokore Effiduase constituency that there was no need making people accept the NDC in the region against their will because "NDC is unpopular". According to the Chronicle the District Chief Executive is alleged to be undermining the policies of the government and his outright disregard for the party executives, want him removed from office.
