Citi FM's Sammens resigns as CEO of Coastal Dev't Authority

Attah-Mensah, popularly known as Sammens, resigned from the newly created Authority a few weeks ago.

On April 13, 2018 the presidency announced the appointment of Mr. Attah-Mensah as head of the Coastal Development Authority to be assisted by four deputies: Jerry Ahmed Shaib, Bob-Charles Agbontor, Mona Gertrude Effah and Emmanuel Affram Anim.

It is being reported that Sammens was unhappy with the management style of the sector minister including certain contracts being awarded.

The Coastal Development Authority was established alongside the Northern and Middle Belt Development Authorities with a responsibility to implement the Infrastructure for Poverty Eradication Programme (IPEP) – the Programme which will ensure the disbursement of the equivalent of $1 million per constituency per year, in fulfillment of President Akufo-Addo’s 2016 campaign pledge.
