Portions of the said letter dated 8th August 2018, gave the reason as “due to the current happenings in your government, especially the dismissal of my senior brother and colleague, Hon. Boakye Agyarko who has been a strong pillar in the Krobo bloc and whose support led to the annexing of the seat from the NDC in the Upper Manya Krobo Constituency, ”
