The Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) of Krachi East, Mr Bernard Aborkugya Mensah, has tragically passed away after collapsing during a matriculation speech at the Dambai College of Education. The incident, which occurred on Friday morning, saw Mr Mensah rushed to the Dambai Health Centre before being transferred to the WoraWora Government Hospital, where he was pronounced dead upon arrival.
