Plan B News has gathered that barring any last-minute decision, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo may announce a major shake-up in his government today, Wednesday, February 14th, 2024.
This will mark Akufo-Addo’s major ministerial reshuffle since assuming office in January 2017.
With barely ten months to the 2024 polls, the President is expected to announce significant changes that will see some of his trusted and reliable hands moving to other ministries, while others will altogether exit this administration.
Pressure has been mounting on the government to reduce its expenditure following the country’s decision to seek a bailout from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to salvage the ailing economy, which had been plagued with massive borrowing, huge debt, falling currency, high inflation, import cover issues, unsustainable expenditures among others.
General Secretary of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), Justin Kodua Frimpong, publicly called for a ministerial reshuffle in December 2023, urging “tired” ministers and other appointees to resign.
