Assembly members of the Sekyere East District will be passing a vote of no confidence in the District Chief Executive Hon Mary Boatemaa Marfo.
In a letter by the Assembly members, there are a number of reasons why they want to pass the vote of no confidence as most of the reasons talk about the low output of the DCE.
Some of the reasons for the members being unhappy with the DCE includes
   School Feeding Malfeasance( Creating Bob existing schools and inflation of enrolment of some schools)
   Projects not passing through the proper procedure; some projects and programs such as the evacuation of refuse amounting to 5.3billion(Old Ghana Cedis)
   PWD common fund disbursement: the DCE unilateral bought items and distributed to PWD without following the recommendations from the appropriate committees of the Assembly and Necessary procurement procedure.
The vote of No confidence will be passed on April 2, 2019.
Below is the full statement
