Alex Kwabena Bempong, the Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) of Birim Central in the Eastern Region, has resigned his post.

It’s unclear why Mr. Bempong took that decision, but GHANAWISH.COM  understands that it’s due to his failing health.

As a result, the Birim Central branch of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has called on its members to apply for the vacant position.

NPP Constituency Secretary, in a letter, said that the position of MCE has become vacant and called on interested applicants to send their applications and Curriculum Vitae (CVs) to the Regional Minister.

“I have been directed by the Regional Secretary to inform the constituency (Birim Central) that the office of the Municipal Chief Executive has become vacant. In view of that, any person interested in the position should take note and send his or her application with CV to the Regional Secretariat in Koforidua not later than Wednesday, May 14 before 4:30pm.

The letter also said “vetting of applicants comes off on Thursday, May 15 at 12:00 pm in Koforidua.”
