The New Juaben Traditional Council has protested against attempts to exclude it from the re-structured Eastern Regional House of Chiefs.

The Council noted that leadership of the Eastern Regional House of Chiefs failed to observe protocol by bypassing the full House in the submission of a memorandum to the National House of Chiefs.

The Council asked that all members of the House be informed of any cogent reasons why the fair principle of equal allocation which had characterised the workings of the House from its inception be thrown away without any justification whatsoever.

It said the adoption of unequal allocation principle introduces serious bias and asymmetry into the composition of the Eastern Regional House of Chiefs without justifiable reasons, as it gives some paramountcies undue numerical advantage over others, a situation which is totally repugnant to the spirit and letter of the Chieftaincy Act.
