These votes were not enough to garner two -thirds (98) votes of the house to be elected. Kumasi residents have expressed worry about the assembly’s failure to elect a Presiding Member on several occasions. They described their current leaders as selfish, adding that the situation is hindering development in the area.
“We don’t have a presiding member , all they do is fight so how then do they choose a presiding member if they keep fighting? ,” a resident lamented. “Who will bring developmental projects here? They should make sure they elect a Presiding Member today because what is happening here is bad,” another resident said.
A few weeks ago, the KMA attempted to vote for a Presiding Member but the exercise was marred by violence as some assembly members traded blows. An Assembly member of KMA, Abdullah Muaza, traded blows with a National Democratic Congress (NDC) serial caller during proceedings.
