Residents of Assin North in the Central Region have expressed dissatisfaction with the lack of social amenities including good roads, schools, and water, as well as the high unemployment rate among the teeming youth in the area.
At a news conference in Assin Breku, the concerned youth of Assin North laid the responsibility for the phenomena on the absence of representation in parliament.
They said that despite taking part in the swearing-in ceremony, James Gyakye Quayson, the MP, was unable to continue any of the projects he had started for the Assin North Constituency.
As a result, Ranklin Otoo the spokesperson for the concerned youth, implored the Supreme court to expedite the interpretation case that Mr Quayson filed since they feel it could put an end to the ongoing dispute.
“The government promised us that when they come into power they would help us, especially those done schooling and ain’t working and also those who want to learn any hand work but since this issue popped up, we don’t know what would be our fate” they bemoaned.
He also used the examples of Jomoro, Techiman South and Hohoe constituencies to question why their representatives are still in office but Mr James Gyakye Quayson has been placed under restrictions.
They demand an explanation for the phenomenon since it is giving them nightmares.
“When we look at the issues going on in court, they are numerous, but for us, they are saying that our MP can’t call himself an MP, we don’t get it’’, they said.
However, given that some people have lost their lives as a result of the ongoing lawsuit, other concerned members also expressed their anger about the situation.
