A Governance Expert, Fred Agyarko Oduro says the sacking of Madam Sarah Adwoa Safo as Minister of Gender is long overdue.
The President in a letter signed by the Communications Director at the Presidency, Eugene Arhin last night revoked the appointment of Madam Adwoa Safo on the basis of Article 81 of the Constitution.
Statement
Madam Adwoa Safo abandoned both her Parliamentary and Ministerial duties for many months and there have been calls from all sectors for the President to relieve her of the post and for the Speaker to declare her seat vacant.
Yesterday, July 28, 2022, the Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin deferred ruling on the matter, while later in the day the President dismissed her as Minister.
Speaking in an interview with Bubu Klinogo, Mr. Oduro said the President should have sacked her long ago.
On the inability of Parliament to have a common position on Madam Adwoa Safo, Mr. Oduro believes the two sides are more interested in the Political Capital they can get out of her situation.
