David Akpasera, presidential candidate of the National People’s Convention
Ghana’s bureaucratic governance system is sufficient justification for President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to have appointed the many ministers he has in his government, the presidential candidate of the National People’s Convention (PNC), David Akpasera has said.
He told Blessed Sogah on Class91.3FM’s State of the Nation program on Wednesday, October 28, 2020 that although a future PNC government will not use as many ministers, he can understand why the current government has so many ministerial appointments.
“If you give the PNC the opportunity to govern, we will seek fewer ministers.
“What happens with ministerial appointments is just the bureaucracy that is happening throughout the system in such a way that if you don’t take something into account, the project that [should] It will run in a day, it will take you a month.
“I can say with certainty that we were chasing something and the document was somewhere in someone’s drawer until we got the minister to look for it.
“You see, that’s why I don’t blame the current government for the number of ministers it has because if you see that if you don’t have a minister here, what you want to move doesn’t move and it means that If you want things to work, you will think you should do it, But like I say, let’s put the right people in the right places and then we’ll have everyone working well. If you don’t work well, get out, ”Akpasera said.
Since taking office in January 2017, the Akufo-Addo government has been criticized by the main opposition Democratic National Congress for having 123 ministers.
President Akufo-Addo has always justified the need for that number of appointees, saying that their work will eventually vindicate their appointment.
