The President stated that the adjustments were driven by a desire to ensure that each minister is strategically positioned to contribute effectively to the government's overarching goals and underscored the importance of prioritizing the welfare of the people in all governmental decisions.
“It is for the people of Ghana, not for me” he added.
During his participation in the 37th Ordinary Session of the AU Assembly (Heads of State and Government), President Nana Akufo-Addo encouraged Ghanaians to sustain their belief in the nation's democratic path, especially in light of the upcoming elections later this year.
Emphasizing the significance of safeguarding democratic values, the President urged citizens to engage actively in the electoral process and fulfill their civic duty by voting responsibly.
