President John Mahama has declared that his administration is the most efficient and leanest in Ghana’s Fourth Republic, boasting a record-low number of ministerial appointments.
Delivering an address to the nation to mark his first 120 days in office, President Mahama said he had fulfilled his promise to form a lean government within 90 days of assuming office.
The President revealed that only 56 ministers and deputy ministers have been appointed so far—the lowest number by any president under the Fourth Republic.
“I promised to constitute the leanest and most efficient government under the Fourth Republic within the first 90 days.
“As promised, I announced the complete list of my cabinet ministers for parliamentary approval within the first 14 days of being sworn in. They were all successfully vetted and approved, and they have hit the ground running,” he said.
“Indeed, I have so far appointed only 56 ministers and deputies. So far, the smallest number of ministers and deputies appointed by any president in the Fourth Republic,” he touted.
In addition, President Mahama announced that the nomination process for Metropolitan, Municipal, and District Chief Executives (MMDCEs) is underway, with confirmations at various stages across the country.
He emphasised that completing the local governance structure was essential for delivering on his administration’s development agenda.
“Our MMDCEs are going through the various phases of confirmation to complete the formation of our governance team at the local level,” he added.
