Speaking on JoyNews’ ‘The Pulse’ programme on Friday, Dr Fiadomor indicated that the only body entitled to take such an action is the General Assembly of Sekondi-Takoradi Metropolitan Assembly (STMA). Once the Assembly confirms a Chief Executive, that Chief Executive now becomes a member of the Assembly of STMA that can meet and suspend the Chief Executive on stated grounds but the President doesn’t have the requisite standard to suspend the Chief Executive,” he explained. So immediately a Chief Executive is confirmed, he now becomes a bonafide member of the Assembly. The Chief Executive if he unfortunately dies, leaves the position. The General Assembly by the two-thirds majority can remove the Chief Executive from office.
