The boycott followed reports that the items earmarked for distribution under the District Assembly Common Fund (DACF) were procured without adhering to laid-down procurement procedures. Ayim explained that district by-laws required all items intended for PWDs to be procured through the District Procurement Officer. He said enquiries made at the Social Welfare Department raised additional concerns, prompting the leadership of the PWDs to advise members to boycott the exercise in protest. Meanwhile, the Ada East District Chief Executive, Kenneth Kabu Kofi Kanor, has appealed to the PWDs to remain calm and adopt amicable means to resolve the issue.
