The Government has officially revoked all appointments and recruitments made in Ghana’s Public Service by the former Akufo-Addo administration after December 7, 2024.
A circular issued by Mr. Julius Debrah, Chief of Staff at the Presidency, and copied to the Ghana News Agency (GNA), directed all Heads of Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) to immediately annul any such appointments.
The directive emphasized that these appointments were not in compliance with established good governance practices and principles.
According to the circular, all Heads of Government Institutions must submit a comprehensive report on the actions taken by February 17, 2025.
“Consistent with Government pronouncements in relation to near end-of-tenure appointments and recruitments, I wish to bring to your attention that all appointments and recruitments made in the Public Services of Ghana after December 7, 2024, are not in compliance with established good governance practices and principles,” the statement read.
“Your cooperation in this matter is highly appreciated,” it added.
