He has threatened to resign from his post if the president ignores his demand, after writing three letters to the president over the matter.

According to Accra-base Starr FM, the NPP regional chairman made the demand after his nephew failed a second-time bid to become the District Executive for Bunkprugu -Yunyoo district.

He has also accused the deputy regional minister of double-crossing him because he believes his nephew, J. K Alhassan was a threat to his political profession. He said Mr. Saeed was also supporting a different person to unseat him as regional party chairman.

He is quoted by Starr FM as saying: "The Regional Minister and his deputy are making my work difficult, very very difficult.

"I have reported it to the President; not one letter, more than about three letters. The regional minister and his deputy, they are destroying all NPP good job, all the wining we won, if we don’t take time, coming next time we may lose most of the places we won.

"I have told the president if he doesn’t take action,  I’m coming back to Accra  after my work today. I’m not going to be doing a good job while some people are destroying it, and I have told the president to let him go and I don’t want to mince words.

“I told the president that these people the way they are in the region, they are destroying the region. For me if that is the case, I will come and with him in Accra, he will take action immediately.”
