CPP suspends two Vice-Chairmen

The Ashanti Regional Executive Committee of the Convention Peoples' Party (CPP) has announced the suspension of Mr Kwadwo Tweneboah, First Regional Vice Chairman and Alhaji Yakubu Mohamed, Second Regional Vice-Chairman of the party.

A press release signed by Mr Kwabena Anim, Ashanti Regional Chairman of CPP in Kumasi, said the regional executive committee acting on its disciplinary powers as stipulated in article 38 (H) of the party's constitution effected the suspension on March 21 for indiscipline.

The release castigated the National Chairman of the CPP, Dr Abubakar Alhassan for causing application forms for membership to be delivered to the two suspended persons.

It described the continued promotion of disunity in the regional branch of the party by the National Chairman as a violation of the party's constitution, which aims at building a disciplined and dynamic political party.

The Regional Executives said the delivery of the forms to Mr Tweneboah and Alhaji Mohamed is a clear act of indiscipline and should collected and sent to the Regional Secretariat of the party at Kejetia, in Kumasi.

The release said the local branches of the party are being organised and this has started with the six constituencies in the Kumasi Metropolis
