The Municipal Chief Executive(MCE) for Ejisu Municipality in the Ashanti Region, Jerryne Asante, has dismissed reports alleging that she was assaulted by members of the National Democratic Congress, describing the claims as inaccurate.

Speaking on Adehye FM’s Ghana Ekosen Morning Show, Mrs. Asante clarified that she was neither attacked nor injured, explaining that the situation stemmed from a misunderstanding.

According to her, the incident followed reports of gunfire involving some chiefs and individuals over a land dispute, as well as allegations that certain persons had privately leased government warehouses.

She said she visited the site to assess the situation and verify the status of the warehouses, where those involved were asked to provide documentation to support their claims.

Tenants were also required to authenticate their lease agreements.

Mrs. Asante noted that during subsequent discussions at her office, a misunderstanding occurred, leading to damage to a glass table.

She, however, maintained that she remained calm throughout the incident.

Police were later called in to restore order, and investigations into the matter are ongoing.

The MCE reiterated that reports suggesting she was assaulted are false and urged the public to disregard such claims.
