North Tongu Member of Parliament, Samuel Okudzetio Ablakwa, has criticized President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s recent cabinet reshuffle, labeling it as belated and unlikely to yield any significant impact.
In a statement shared on X, Ablakwa expressed his dissatisfaction with the timing of the reshuffle, suggesting that it comes too late to make a difference. He also took aim at Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta, hinting at impending accountability for alleged financial improprieties.
“A belated reshuffle after the ship has sunk and after the horses have bolted. Obviously, nothing will change in the next 9 months. As for Ken Ofori-Atta — at the right time he will answer for his US$58 million illegal withdrawal for Akufo-Addo’s scandalous US$450 million cathedral, the US$100 million dubious SML contract & all the other atrocities. The day of reckoning is coming,” he wrote.
President Akufo-Addo’s reshuffle saw several ministers being relieved of their portfolios, including Information Minister Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, Works and Housing Minister Francis Asenso Boakye, and others. Some ministers were reassigned to different roles.
The reshuffle was confirmed by the Director of Communications at the Presidency, Eugene Arhin, who expressed appreciation to the outgoing ministers for their service and wished them well in their future endeavors.
The statement concluded by acknowledging the commitment and dedication of the departing ministers in fulfilling the government’s mandate over the past seven years.
