The President, His Excellency Nana Akufo Addo is set to appoint a new Minister of Sanitation after the resignation of Cecilia Dapaah, who stepped down amid allegations of corruption and the misappropriation of $1 million from the ministry. However, the upcoming appointment has not been without controversy as one NDC Communicator alleges that the purported new Minister is an ex- girlfriend of Akufo Addo.
A tweet from an account named " Berry" has alleged that the new purported minister, Madam Ellen Ama Ofosuaah Daaku, is an ex- girlfriend of President Akufo Addo. The tweet, which has since gone viral, has sparked heated debates and raised questions about the transparency and merit- based selection process of government officials.
Reacting in a tweet, the user expressed their disapproval of Ama Daaku' s potential appointment, stating, " I' ll prefer Cecilia Dapaah to be the Sanitation minister than this wanna here. This lady Ama Daaku is linked too closely to both Akuffo Addo and Bawumia; she' s just a fraud. " This statement reflects growing concerns over potential favoritism and nepotism within the government, as critics argue that personal relationships should not influence appointments to critical ministerial positions.
In light of the recent scandal involving Cecilia Dapaah, the government must demonstrate its commitment to combating corruption and upholding ethical standards in public service. The misappropriation of public funds not only undermines the nation' s development efforts but also erodes public trust in the government' s ability to serve the people.
As the nation awaits the official announcement of the new Minister of Sanitation, it is essential for the government to address these allegations and provide assurance that the appointment will be based on merit and competency rather than personal ties. Ghana' s citizens expect transparency and accountability in all aspects of governance, including the selection of government officials.
