Former President, John Mahama, has promised to run a government of only sixty ministers when successful in the 2024 elections.
This, he says, is to save resources to cater for allowances of assembly members.
When the 'Building Ghana Campaign' made a stop at Dwomoh in the Ahafo region, John Mahama told residents "every minister is given two vehicles; one four-wheel and a salon car.
