Odeneho Kwaku Appiah, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Constituency Chairman for Affigya Kwabre South, has proposed military training for District Chief Executives (DCEs).
“DCEs are key agents for development at the grassroots level so there is the need for them to be active at all times, hence the need for military training for them,” he said.
“There should be a law that stipulates that people that are appointed as DCEs must go for military training for two months before they take office. This will make them efficient and active.”
Odeneho Kwaku Appiah, who is outspoken, insisted that assembly members, who are also crucial to development in the various localities, should also undergo military training as well.
“With the military training, DCEs and assemblymen would be punctual to work and this would eventually lead to the transformation of our country,” he said.
Odeneho Kwaku Appiah made the disclosure while addressing the DCE, assemblymen, NPP executives and coordinators at Affigya Kwabre South in the Ashanti Region on Sunday.
The meeting, a brainchild of Mr Appiah, was geared towards enhancing peace and unity among the assembly members, DCEs and NPP executives and coordinators to boost development.
Odeneho Kwaku Appiah said the current Akufo-Addo administration is committed to transforming Ghana and urged assembly members to partner the NPP executives.
The Affigya Kwabre South NPP Chairman also admonished assembly members to be disciplined at all times to help promote development.
“Development cannot take place in an indiscipline society and so I urge the various assemblies to formulate laws that would boost development.”

This man should be sent to psychiatric home for check up. Military training for what, punctuality? Goodness! If someone of leadership position lacks the quality of being punctual then he is not fit for the job, and the president should sack him and replace him with a serious minded person. No one needs any military training for any administrative job. What type of mentality is this, in a democracy?
If at this age you cannot be disciplined and work professionally then something is wrong with you. Do you understand what it takes to be a District chief executive? If you still require military training to enable you be disciplined in your work, then probably you got your job because of family and friends mantra. I don't think nana addo will appoint immature men and women for the job of DCEs. Maturity is the ability to take responsibility and act with discipline.
