According to our reliable source, the Osino community spearhead by a pressure group summoned the Chief, Nana Otu Darko IV before the Okyenhene for accountability and Utilization of the people’s money.
According to sources, he was embarrassed by the Okyenhene who reprimanded him and directed him to go and immediately render account to the people but has blatantly ignored the advice.
This disrespect to the Okyehene’s directives has angered the stakeholders in Osino who planned a demonstration against him, but leadership were prevailed upon by the Police to postpone and allow them plead with the chief to respect the Okyehene’s directives for peace and tranquility in the town.
This has however escalated the tension as Citizens continue to accuse the chief of multiple embezzlement and lack of progress in the community as well as failing to meet his people for the past 8 years.
