THE Western Regional Minister, Mr Paul Evans Aidoo, has said the Regional Co-ordinating Council (RCC) does not recognise any group purported to have been formed to be the mouthpiece or spokespersons for the region.
He said the 17 district, municipal and metropolitan chief executives, the 17 presiding members as well as the 22 paramountcies and other politicians in the Western Region were enough to speak for the region in terms of development and other social issues.
“There are no other politicians than these persons who can be the spokespersons for the region,” he emphasised.
Mr Aidoo was addressing the Ahanta Traditional Council at Busua in the Ahanta West District after he had been officially introduced to the council.
“We don’t recognise such group in the Western Region, don’t recognise any group formed to be the mouthpiece of the region,” he said.
He called for unity among the chiefs and urged them not to allow their political leaning to affect the development efforts of the region.
Mr Aidoo said unity was very crucial to solving the numerous problems militating against the effective development of the region.
The Paramount Chief of the Ahanta Traditional Area and Member of the Council of State, Otumfour Baidoo Bonsoe XV, said the chiefs would assist the regional minister in all his activities towards the rapid socio-economic development of the region.
He urged the regional co-ordinating council to include in its priority list the provision of electricity, the rehabilitation of the road network and other development projects lacking in the district.
