A group calling itself Concerned Youth of Kwahu in the Eastern Region on Saturday morning embarked on a peaceful march to petition the Kwahu Traditional Council, expressing their dissatisfaction with Daasebre Akuamoah Agyapong II (Kwahumanhene) following alleged extortion and fraud leading to his resignation as the Board Chairman of the Agricultural Development Bank (ADB).
The group claims that his tenure has brought disrepute to the Kwahu Kingdom due to allegations of misconduct, including inducement and extortion, which led to his forced resignation.
Daasebre Akuamoah Agyapong II, known in private life as Eugene Asante Boadi, a Chartered Accountant, resigned with immediate effect on Friday following serious allegations of extortion brought against him by a customer of the ADB bank.
The resignation comes in the wake of an emergency board meeting, where the Kwahumanhene decided to step down in an effort to safeguard the bank's reputation.
