The District Chief Executive for Denkyira-Obuasi in the Central region, Daniel Appianing has laughed off reports that he has been dismissed by President Akufo-Addo.
According to him, he is still at post saying he has never been a happy man until the news of his suspension hit the media.
“I have never been happy in my life than today. I’m still in my office. I have not received official notification. I have heard it on social media and radio,” he stated in an interview with Starr News’ Elvis Adjetey.
He added “Ever since this incident happened nobody has called to find out my side of the story. So if they are suspending me and it will be on radio without communicating to me that it their problem.”
Mr. Appianing has been asked to hand over to the Deputy Central regional Minister, Thomas Adjei Baffoe.
A letter to that effect was signed Thursday, afternoon by the Minister for Local Government and Rural Development upon the instructions of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.
Ghana was thrown into a state of despair on Monday, May 29, 2017, when the news of the lynching of a military officer detailed at Denkyira-Obuasi in the Central Region broke. Captain Maxwell Mahama of the 5th Infantry Battalion was heading a military detachment to the area to fight illegal mining, popularly known as galamsey.
Following the incident, the DCE for the area, Mr. Appiannin told journalists that he was unaware that the military officer was part of a detachment to the area to assist in the fight against galamsey.
His utterances, however, attracted lots of condemnation from the public, with the family of the deceased calling for his immediate dismissal.

I believe the DCE knows that the President will not dismiss him that is why he is so confident. The president is just pretending to be doing something to deceive the public. The DCE will soon be given back his post after all he is a party man. He should have been sacked if president really means business.
Such an arr0gant foo1, no wonder you are out of job so soon. Npp and Nana Addo gov't can NEVER work with such an arr0gant foo1.
This is the kind of problem we will be having when the DCEs are elected..... How do we remove arrogant non-performing ones?
Masa, continue tickling urslf and u will soon be laughing at the wrong side of ur mouth. U should have exercised patience to ascertain the veracity of the incidence before concluding. Most of u love the monthly salary than the work u do.
Mr DCE, Your arrogance and pomposity is going to cause your downfall even if you are reinstated latter. You seem not to respect authority and the powers that appointed you. Such ignoramus of a DCE.
