The Akufo-Addo-led government has the highest number of Ministers, Ministers of State and Deputy Ministers. President Akufo-Addo has a total of 110 ministers.

Many argued that the number was too high but the government defended it saying they needed the numbers to execute their ambitious plans.

The Monitoring and Evaluation was one of the ministries many expected should be scrapped since most Ministries already have such units within their structure.

But the government rejected such claims indicating such a role is necessary for tracking the implementation of government policies and programs.
