Central Region Chairman of the
National Democratic Congress (NDC) has stated that a new premix committee will
soon be set up.
This follows the dissolution of the
previous committee in the wake of corruption allegations leveled against it by
Mr Allotey jacobs.
Minister of Fisheries, Sherry
Ayittey last week dissolved the premix board but a group of fishermen Monday
March 30, 2015 stormed the ministries to demand the head of the minister because the
dissolution did not go down well with them.
The fishermen say the minister
refused to consult them before dissolving the committee.
Mr. Allotey Jacobs, who
had earlier called on the minister to dissolve the committee, said
composition of a new one is ongoing and will soon be announced and subsequently
inaugurated.
He also announced an audit of all
landing beaches.
"Thousands of people have
congratulated Madam Ayittey for dissolving the board. In fact, she has done the
right thing because the previous board has embezzled millions of Ghana cedis
and as a party, because we (NDC) don’t condone illegalities, we need to stop
those acts” he stated on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem Tuesday.
