The statement said "It was discussed and unanimously agreed, following investigations by some members of the Coalition, that Mr. Kofi Asare did not meet the criteria for election to the office of Chairman of the Coalition per Article 12 of the GNECC constitution. It became clear that he came to the office based on false information with regards to meeting the criteria provided."

According to the statement, it waas unanimously agreed that the powers of the Chairperson should be relinquished to the Vice Chair effective 13th August 2019, for the next 3 months pending the election of a substantive leader.
