I’ll Prefer Unemployment To Continuing As Tamale Mayor – Musah Superior Bows Out
From all indications, the outgoing Mayor of Tamale Metropolis, Iddrisu Musah widely known Musah Superior is poised to stand by his words! He has said that he will prefer being unemployed to lobbying to be retained in his current position as the Tamale Mayor.
According to the staunch New Patriotic Party (NPP), he has played his candid role as a Mayor of the great Northern city for the last four years and he feels it is time for other political activists to also take up the nod.
The NPP firebrand’s comment comes on the back of rumours that he is in contention for the Tamale Mayor position in Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s second term in government with other big party gurus’ favourites. The Mayor, making his thoughts known, took to social media to spit all out.
The tenacious Tamale Mayor wrote;
***“Contest” Wahala!
Yesterday, a friend contacted me to say that, he heard rumours that l am still interested in the job as Tamale Mayor.
I beg, count me out oooh. I have done my part for my city for 4 years. It has been challenging and exciting. I have moved on. Six months to the elections, l announced on a number of radio stations in Tamale that, l will stand down as Mayor after the elections. I still stand by that.
I won’t continue with the job; even WITHOUT A NEW JOB in this new government. It is important other local hardworking activists of our Party are given the opportunity to serve in the role. Who knows; maybe, they will do a better job to address the challenges of the city.
Good luck to all the aspiring Mayors.
Let’s all serve the NPP to our utmost best wherever we find ourselves.
Good morning.***
