Information Minister designate, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah has revealed to the Appointment Committee that Minister for Regional Reorganization and Development Dan Kwaku Botwe is the acting Minister for Information.
This came to light when the Minority Leader, Haruna Iddrisu sought to know if he held himself as the acting Information Minister. But the nominee before the Appointment Committee said no, and made the revelation.
Chairman of the committee, Joseph Osei Owusu questioned why this information had not been communicated to Ghanaians, as Kojo Oppong Nkrumah indicated that as a Deputy Minister in the absence of a substantive Minister, he is assigned to supervise, the nominee told the committee.
Mr. Joseph Osei-Owusu cautioned that it is very critical for Ghanaians to be informed about this.
The nominee before the committee indicated to the committee that the advice is well taken, adding the mistake would not be repeated in future.
