We’re aware Ghanaians won’t tolerate misgovernance any longer – Ato Forson assures Mahama

Dr Cassiel Ato Forson

Newly sworn-in Finance Minister, Dr Cassiel Ato Forson, has declared that the current administration has recognised the growing intolerance of Ghanaians for poor governance.

Dr Forson made this statement during the swearing-in ceremony of six newly appointed ministers, held at the Jubilee House on January 22.

Addressing President John Dramani Mahama and a host of government officials, Dr Forson assured of governance that will meet the expectation of Ghanaians.

“We have been with you throughout your days in opposition, and we have witnessed the misgovernance and misrule from the previous administration. We have learnt indeed that Ghanaians will not tolerate such misgovernance any longer,” he asserted.

The ceremony marked a significant moment for the new administration, as six ministerial nominees whose portfolios are critical for the effective governance of the country can officially start work.

The appointees include Dr Dominic Ayine as Attorney-General and Minister of Justice, John Jinapor as Minister of Energy and Green Transition, Haruna Iddrisu as Minister of Education, Eric Opoku as Minister of Food and Agriculture, and Governs Kwame Agbodza as Minister of Roads and Highways.

In his remarks, President Mahama charged the new ministers to uphold the principles of transparency, efficiency, and accountability in their work.

He emphasised the need for swift and decisive action to address the pressing challenges facing the nation, urging them to set a high standard in governance.
