The Sunyani Traditional Council has expressed some reservations about the nomination of Mr Kwaku Asoma-Cheremeh as the Brong Ahafo Regional Minister-designate.
According to the chiefs, they would not give him the needed support should he be given parliamentary approval.
At a press conference at the Palace of the Sunyani Omanhene on Thursday, the chiefs accused Mr Asoma-Cheremeh of inciting people against their authority.
President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo in announcing Mr Asoma-Cheremeh as Brong Ahafo Regional Minister designate on Tuesday touted his hard work which made it possible for the NPP to win 20 seats in the region.
But the Krontihene of the area, Nana Bofotia Boa Amponsem II said the conduct of Mr Asoma-Cheremeh towards the authority of the traditional council was unacceptable and for that matter they could not collaborate with him as a regional minister.
“While we cannot stop him from becoming a regional minister, what we are saying is that we cannot be part of his administration,” he said.
Nana Amponsem, however stated that the doors of the council was opened for amicable settlement of an impasse that had existed between the council and Mr Asoma-Cheremeh, who is the current regional chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).

I thought these supposedly wise men were going to raise Competency issues, what a pity. They wasted our precious time talking about their personal grudges with the appointee. Nananom, please 'grow-up' and 'wise-up'.
Nana Whatever take ur gbema go sit ur 80% top...u dont get to speak for the entire region. even The Mighty Asantehene doesnt get to speak for the entire ashanti region how much more you?..? kai..NDC Chief gerradehere!
THIS I=DI00T NANA BOSOMA SHOULD NOT BE HEARD AT ALL. HE PREDICTED 80% WIN FOR MAHAMAH LAST OCTOBER. AN NDC GEM GO AWAY, YOU D..EVIL
Nana Addo please don't mind them wae. After all the Paramount Chief, Nana Bosoma Asor Nkrawiri, in October, declared support for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) presidential candidate John Mahama and the traditional council did not see anything wrong with it.
WHY SHOULD NDC CHIEF WHO PREDICTED 80% FOR MAHAMA BE HEARD AT ALL. NANA , MR PRESIDENT IGNORE THIS RO GGUE OF KRONTIHENE WHO IS STILL IN CAMPAIGN MOOD. TELL HIM THE ELECTIONS ARE OVER LA.
This Sunyani dikro and his elders behave as if Sunyani constitutes the Brong Ahafo Region. Nana Sunyani dikro should remember that this power and authority do not extend to Abesim, Yawhimakrom, Domase and Fiapre. They should stop speaking for and on behalf of the good people of the region. Perid.
