<\/p>\nThe Member of Parliament for Tema West, Carlos Ahenkorah lost his cool last week when he unleashed anger on the Tema Metropolitan Assembly Works Engineer who was supervising the demolition of unauthorized structures erected on the edges of the road.<\/p>\n
The unauthorized structures, according to the Engineer, Maxwell Adu Boateng were creating nuisances along the stretch hence the exercise.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But Carlos Ahenkorah, who got wind of the exercise rushed to the site in a very angry mood, charged and chanted “choboi” and instructed his constituents and affected residents to stop the TMA taskforce from destroying their properties.<\/p>\n
The exercise was being undertaken with protection from a joint security force from the Navy and police.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
However, the armed navy and police personnel present at the scene could not utter a word or stop the residents as the residents unleashed their anger on the TMA taskforce.<\/p>\n
Carlos Ahenkorah, who is also the Deputy Minister for Trade, then walked towards the TMA works engineer, Maxwell Adu Boateng, who upon sensing danger of the angry MP bolted to his pickup vehicle with the intention of fleeing from the scene.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Not satisfied with his action, the MP further chased Adu Boateng and banged his car and threatened that he would let his constituents shoot him if he dares to come to the area to conduct such exercise.<\/p>\n
However, it took the timely intervention from some members of the public to help the engineer to flee from the snare of the MP.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The Tema Metropolitan Assembly has on three different occasions received a written request from the Ghana Cocoa Board to remove the structures in front of their wall at Cocoa village, Community 2.<\/p>\n
The letter stated that the structures have become a nuisance and also impeding the progress of work on their construction.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
It further highlighted the security threats occupants of the village face, as the structures serve as a hide out for armed robbers.<\/p>\n
The Chief Executive of Tema Metropolitan Assembly, Felix Mensah Nii Anang-La, in an interview condemned the attack saying, the actions of the MP was needless and wrong.<\/p>\n

He said although the assembly will face stiff opposition in its quest to restore Tema to it formal glory,\u00a0 they are prepared to see it to the latter.<\/p>\n
