Angry residents of Abura-Asebu-Kwamankese District in the Central Region are seeking the removal of the District Chief Executive.Hundreds of residents staged a protest march Friday to present a petition to the District Assembly, calling for the immediate removal of the DCE, Aba Edusah who they accuse of being autocratic.Joy FM’s Central Regional correspondent Richard Kojo Nyarko reports that the residents chanted and hurled insults at the DCE.Angry at the residents, she taunted them by dancing to catcalls and songs they were singing, following it up with hurling bagged ice water at them.The residents retaliated, throwing stones back at the DCE, an action which brought the police in to intervene.Aba Edusah, according to Kojo Nyarko, has been kept indoors but the residents still linger.She is, among other things, accused of engaging in profligate expenditure and siting a new market at Asebu, her hometown, instead of the District Capital as suggested by the chiefs.The residents say they will continue to pursue the DCE until she is removed from office by President John Mills.But DCE Aba Edusah has denied the allegations levelled against her, insisting that the allegations are trumped-up to destroy her reputation.Story by Nathan Gadugah/Myjoyonine.com/Ghana
