President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has appointed former General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), John Boadu, as the acting Director General of the State Interest and Government Authority (SIGA).
This development comes following the retirement of Edward Boateng a few weeks ago.
The president’s secretary, Nana Bediatuo Asante, conveyed this appointment through a letter, giving Boadu two weeks to confirm his acceptance.
“Pursuant to Section 17 (2) of the State Interests and Governance Authority Act, 2019 (Act 990), I am pleased to inform you that the President has appointed you to act as the Director-General of State Interests and Governance Authority (the “Authority”) pending receipt of the constitutionally required advice of the governing Board of the Authority, given in consultation with the Public Services Commission”.
“I take this opportunity to congratulate you on your appointment,” it read.
