Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh, popularly known as NAPO, the running mate of the (NPP) for the 2024 elections, has cautioned the Ashanti Regional Minister, Dr Frank Amoakohene, on the responsible exercise of authority.

According to NAPO, the minister should exercise his power in a manner that attracts blessings rather than curses from the people.

His remarks follow an incident involving the regional minister and firefighters during a fire outbreak at the Adum Bluelight Market in Kumasi's Central Business District.

In a widely circulated video, Dr Amoakohene was heard shouting at some officers, prompting concerns about his approach to leadership.
