Do not renege in reshuffling your appointees- Mahama told

Commercially-oriented energy economist and political risk analyst, Dr Theo Acheampong has urged the President of Ghana not to renege on reshuffling his ministers.

To him, the president needs to crack the whip to deter other appointees.

He is of the view that regardless, there will be some scandals, and to show that he is against corruption, among other things, it will be imperative that he dismisses appointees who get themselves involved in any act of corruption.

Read His Post Below:

“President Mahama must not renege in reshuffling them or dismiss any minister or other appointee that gets caught in corruption scandals. A few will definitely come so the signalling intent in dealing with corruption is very important.”

My Top 5 Ministerial Vettings So Far in No Particular Order:

1. Dr Cassiel Ato Forson (MP) – Finance

2. Eric Opoku (MP) – Food and Agriculture

3. Emelia Arthur (MP) – Fisheries and Aquaculture

4. John Abdulai Jinapor (MP) – Energy and Green Transition

5. Dr Frank Amoakohene – Ashanti Region

NB: The list is compiled based on the strength and depth of the answers provided by the nominees in demonstrating understanding of their sector/region, and providing possible solutions that align with Ghana’s needs, the party’s vision and manifesto.

I would think this is by far the youngest ministerial appointment in the Fourth Republic based on the median age [I will confirm this later].

I pray these younger crop of ministers and other appointees deliver for the collective good of the country. They must be given the room to work by removing political obstacles that hinder effective decision-making. They cannot afford to fail the YOUTH of the country.

President Mahama must not renege in reshuffling them or dismiss any minister or other appointee that gets caught in corruption scandals. A few will definitely come so the signalling intent in dealing with corruption is very important.

As we say, the PROOF of the PUDDING is in the eating.

I wish all the appointees the best.

May Ghana be the winner as we build a more inclusive economy and society.

Question: Which of the other ministerial nominees has impressed you and why? Let’s engage…
