Resign Rather To Benefit Ghana Not A Reshuffle – Minority Tells Akufo-Addo

The Minority in Ghana’s Parliament has told President Akufo-Addo to rather resign rather than ministerial reshuffle for the benefit of the country.

According to the NDC Minority the president’s resignation represents the most effective means of putting an end to the suffering and hardship experienced by Ghanaians.

In a significant ministerial reshuffle announced on February 14, President Akufo-Addo relieved Finance Minister Ken Ofori Atta of his duties, affecting 13 current ministers of state, including 10 cabinet ministers and two regional ministers.

In a statement issued on the same day, Minority leader, Dr Cassiel Ato Forson, the NDC believes that the optimal solution to address the suffering and hardships of Ghanaians would be for both President Akufo-Addo and Vice President Alhaji Bawumia to resign.

“The NDC Minority believes that the best way to end the suffering and hardships of Ghanaians would have been for both President Akufo-Addo and Vice President Alhaji Bawumia to resign.”

The Minority Leader said President Akufo-Addo had at all material times remained obstinate and defiant when the subject of reshuffle came up for discussion.

“For example, he rebuffed nearly 100 NPP Members of Parliament who demanded the immediate resignation of outgoing Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta,” he added.
