Justin Frimpong Kodua, the General Secretary of the NPP, expressed his dismay at the way some government appointees are performing.
In the run-up to the general elections in 2024, Justin Kodua claims, the party’s electoral progress could be hampered by the actions of those who fall short of expectations.
Speaking to guests at the nondenominational Thanksgiving Service hosted by the party at its Accra headquarters as part of its year-end events, Koduah demanded that those responsible resign.
He also underlined how important it is that the President start the process of reorganizing the government. CEOs, deputies, and MMDCEs who acknowledge their weariness are urged by Justin Kodua to resign without endangering the party’s objectives.
Justin Kodua emphasized the government’s ability to bounce back from internal and external setbacks during the year, emphasizing the significance of giving thanks to God.
Meanwhile, the commitment of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to refrain from interfering with the ongoing investigations concerning Cecilia Abena Dapaah, the former Minister of Sanitation and Water Resources, has been underlined.
Speaking on Thursday at the opening of Ghana’s National Anti-Corruption Action Plan evaluation, President Akufo-Addo said that the executive branch does not interfere with investigations into his appointees because there is insufficient evidence or accusations to support a different conclusion.
In particular, the President brought up the matter of former Minister of Sanitation and Water Resources Cecilia Abena Dapaah, stressing the openness of the inquiry and saying, “No evidence or allegation has been forthcoming that the executive has made any attempt to influence the outcome of these investigations. The latest episode involving the former Minister for Sanitation, the Honourable Cecilia Abena Dapaah, is evident for all to see.
“I am not aware of any government in the Fourth Republic subjecting so many of its officials to such investigations and enquiries.”
The President brought up previous incidents during the Mahama administration in a comparative manner.
