President John Dramani Mahama has formally requested Parliament’s approval for the appointment of 10 regional ministers.
A communication from the presidency has been sent to the Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, seeking the vetting and confirmation of the nominees.
This marks a significant step in the President’s efforts to strengthen governance and ensure effective administration across the regions.
They are nominees for Oti, Volta, Eastern, Northern, North East, Upper East, Ashanti, Ahafo, Savannah, and Greater Accra.
There are six regions outstanding – Western, Western North, Central, Bono East, Bono, and Upper West, where the President is yet to nominate people for consideration for appointment.
