The Western Regional Coordinating Council (WRCC) has denied a letter circulating on social media directing all the Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies (MMDAs) in the region to contribute some amount of money to support the final funeral rites of the late father of the Western Regional Minister, Kwabena Okyere Darko-Mensah.
The said letter which was signed by Coordinating Director, Mr Frederick Agyemang directed all the 14 MMDAs in the region have been directed to contribute various sums of monies to support the final funeral rites of the father of the regional Minister.
In all, a total amount of GH¢49, 000 is suppose to be paid by the assemblies to support the interment of the late Nana Boanyina Adusei Mensah II.
It instructed the assemblies to pay the monies to the regional accountant by close of work on Monday, September 20, 2021.
A statement issued by the WRCC and signed by its Public Relations Officer, Charles Cobbinah called on all to disregard the purported letter since it did not have the seal of the WRCC.
“Please disregard the letter and consider it as not true”.
“The Regional Minister has not instructed any MMDCE to make any payment in support of his father’s funeral or any other funeral”, the WRCC PRO indicated.
