List of over 50 Akufo-Addo appointees who are family and friends

The emerging news has it that the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has revealed names of relatives and cronies within the Akufo-Addo's Government.

This came to light at a press conference on Tuesday, when the National Communications Officer Sammy Gyamfi listed 51 names of relatives and cronies which he said pointed to “classic and unprecedented” nepotism within the Akufo-Addo government.

It was established that the list includes the entire nuclear family of Nana Asante Bediatuo who is a cousin to the President and is also his Executive Secretary.

Sammy Gyamfi referred Akufo-Addo and Ghanaians to what the president had said regarding eschewing nepotism and cronyism in his campaign tour ahead of 2016 general elections.

“I will not operate a family and friends’ government”, he quoted the then NPP Presidential candidate.

The NDC listed relatives of the President, Vice-President Mahamudu Bawumia, Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta, and relatives of the Senior Minister, Yaw Osafo-Maafo.

The NDC National Communications Officer described the level of nepotism as amounting to “total state capture.”
