Assembly members in the Juaben Municipality of the Ashanti region have refused to participate in an election to confirm Alex Sarfo Kantanka as Municipal Chief Executive (MCE).
Â
An intervention of the Juaben Traditional Authority failed to resolve the impasse as the assembly members protested the deployment of police and military to the area.
Â
Twenty out of 26 assembly members boycotted the election, leading to indefinite postponement.
