Chief of Staff, Julius Debrah called on Ghana’s Civil Service to adapt to the demands of a digital era, emphasising that e-governance must be treated as a necessity rather than a luxury.
Speaking on behalf of President John Mahama at the climax of the 2025 Civil Service Week Celebration and 2024 Awards Ceremony at the Alisa Hotel, the Chief of Staff stressed the need for continuous training and upskilling of civil servants to deliver faster, more transparent, and cost-effective services.
“Civil service is no longer limited to filing papers and manually processing applications,” he stated. “The modern civil service staff must therefore be digitally literate, data-driven, and agile. Citizens now expect services to be delivered faster, cheaper, and more transparently and rightfully so.”
He stated that adopting digital tools is no longer optional. “E-governance is not a luxury, it is a necessity in these times,” he said.
He assured that the Mahama-led administration is fully committed to supporting this transformation.
“The administration of President John Mahama is committed to supporting the Civil Service to become a fully modernised, responsive, and digitally empowered institution,” he said.
He also acknowledged the importance of collective effort in achieving this vision.
“We recognise that while reforms begin with leadership, their success rests on the commitment and capacity of the entire service,” he noted.
