Assembly Members of the Atwima Mponua District want President Mahama to consider the nomination of Sakina Oforiwaa, a member of the communication team of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), for the position of District Chief Executive.
They have threatened to resist any other nominee for the position.
Atwima Mponua and Asante Mampong district assemblies are the only two assemblies in the Ashanti region yet to receive nominations for the chief executive position.
Thirty-four assembly members, made up of 25 elected members and nine government appointees, on May 9, 2025, petitioned President Mahama to nominate a former assemblywoman for the Adobewura electoral area, Sakina Oforiwaa, as district chief executive.
