Deputy General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Haruna Mohammed says the next NPP government will terminate all public sector appointments made by National Democratic Congress (NDC) when they return to power in 2029.
According to him, the NPP will payback the NDC in its own coin if they refuse to recall Ghanaians who were fired recently.
Heads of government institutions have been ordered to nullify all appointments made by the erstwhile Akufo-Addo administration after December 7, 2024.
This directive came from the Chief of Staff, Julius Debrah.
The directive was contained in a circular dated February 10, 2025, and addressed to all Heads of Government Institutions.
“Consistent with Government pronouncement in relation to near end of tenure appointments and recruitments, I wish to bring to your attention that all appointments and recruitments made in the Public Services of Ghana after 7th December, 2024 are not in compliance with established good governance practices and principles,” Julius Debrah wrote.
He therefore directed that, “accordingly, all Heads of Government Institutions are hereby requested to take the necessary steps to annul any such appointments or recruitments and submit a comprehensive report on the actions taken to this Office by 17th February 2025.”
“Your cooperation in this matter is highly appreciated,” he urged.
Haruna Mohammed in an interview stated, “You cannot be dismantling job opportunities and saying you want to create some. I want to assure the NDC that today if they don’t call all those they have dismissed from office, we are betting them, 2025 to 2028 people they will recruit and we will come and dismiss all of them.”
“So, they should be mindful, it should be put on record. It should be put on record so the job situation will go backward. If they don’t go back to bring them back and recruit people we bet them 2025-2028 we will sack them.”
