We don’t want Ebi Bright as mayor – Tema Youth to Prez Mahama

Some youth from Tema have stormed the premises of the Tema Metropolitan Assembly, demanding that President John Dramani Mahama appoint an indigene as the next Mayor of Tema.

The protestors voiced their concerns with burning car tyres and the rhythmic beating of drums, sending a strong message to authorities.

Their agitation comes amid reports suggesting that Ebi Bright is being considered for the position, despite earlier indications that Patience Ankamah Addo was the frontrunner for the mayoral role.

Speaking to the media, Dora Sappor, a concerned youth from Tema, firmly rejected the idea of Ebi Bright’s appointment as Mayor of the Tema Metropolitan Assembly.

“We are here with a heavy heart to register our displeasure. We are hearing that Ebi Bright is to be made the Mayor of Tema, but that is not going to happen. She was not even part of the whole process, so why are they bringing her to be the mayor? This is something we will not understand.

This is the only demand of the youth of Tema East and the traditional leaders,” she stated.
