Let’s fast and pray for Ghana after Ken Ofori-Atta’s new appointment -Hon. Okudzeto
North Tongu Member of Parliament (MP) Hon. Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa has expressed his dissatisfaction with the appointment of Ken Ofori-Atta by the President, Nana Addo Danquah Akufo-Addo saying “Ken Ofori-Atta’s appointment — Let’s fast and pray for this sorry Republic.”
Hon. Okudzeto in his submission said “Presidential Advisors and Special Envoys are not accountable to Parliament and cannot be summoned to answer parliamentary questions for their actions.
Even when Ken Ofori-Atta was Finance Minister and was directly accountable to Parliament, that did not deter him from his illegal US$58million withdrawal for President Akufo-Addo’s scandalous cathedral pit, squandering US$ 12 million on failed Agyapa, signing a dubious US$100million SML deal, collapsing the constitutional Contingency Fund and creating his own Contingency Vote and his infamous 2022 budgetary allocation of a whopping GHS241.9million for so-called e-Transaction Levy Services which I successfully scuttled.

“It is also very troubling and most insensitive on the part of President Akufo-Addo that in this time of economic crisis and excruciating hardships when many Ghanaians expected him to take advantage of his belated reshuffle to reduce the size of his bloated government, the numbers are rather going up with many sacked ministers returning either as presidential advisors, ministers of state at the presidency or advisors to ministers.
