However, speaking in an interview with Soireenews.com to congratulate Mr.Andoh for his appointment,Nana Ngoah Anyimah Kodom II was full of support for the new MCE and tabled some issues of community important for him to tackle.
According to the Bibiani chief,the Assembly is completely dead and that the new MCE has some hard tasks to perform to revive the Assembly again to its good standard.
"The new MCE have numerous tasks ahead of him because the Assembly was absolutely dead, dead, dead, and confronted with numerous problems and challenges. And now that he has been appointed by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, although he hasn't come officially to greet me, but l know he would come, but until he comes, l telling him [the new MCE] that his number one priority is to devise contingent measures to fix the dead street light bulbs in the Bibiani township because the township is completely dark.
"The entire Bibiani township has no street lights now. The Bibiani is the municipal capital city of Bibiani-Anhwiaso-Bekwai Municipal Assembly but it is too dark, the bulbs of the various street lights within the township were dead.
"The solar powers are there we need them to make the Bibiani township a wealthy of living and with that l am appealing to the MCE that we all pay the street lights bill charged by the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG), so we should also enjoy street lights in the Bibiani.
"For my second demand from the MCE is to ensure that that he brings the needed development to the Bibiani enclave," the chief appealed
He indicated that although he has short times of two years to run the administrative affairs of the Assembly he can easily excel when he works with collaboration with the relevant stakeholders.
The chief indicated his readiness and commitment to give his total support to the MCE to excel by working to the expectations of the constituents.
He stated that entire people in the municipality were happy when he was appointed by the President.
He noted that it was even the members and supporters of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) who approved and confirmed his appointment to work as the substantiative MCE of the area.
He warned that the new MCE should not come with that nepotism.
"No! That should not be his mind but rather he should avoid all those thinkings because it is saying that he who comes with the equity comes with a clean hand," the chief advised the MCE
Our new MCE now being appointed and confirmed as the MCE for Bibiani and that not the MCE for NPP.
He noted that he should now know that he is the political father of all constituents and that he should do his works devoid of politics.
Following this development, the chief stressed that they are appealing to the MCE to be up and doing to bring the needed development to the area.
He said the MCE should be unifier who should separate them, stressing that they have given him 100% supported to deliver his tasks.
"I am encouraging you that whatever problems you may confronted with in discharging of your duties, you should be bold to approach me to tell me and that l and my kinsmen would do whatever possible to help you address those problems," Nana Ngoah Anyimah Kodom II told the new MCE.
He stressed that they would not let the new MCE down saying that they are fully behind him.
