Majority Leader, Osei-Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu has told the House he would follow up with the chief of staff at the presidency to provide the six missing names from the list the Presidency provided as staff to the House this week.
Ranking Member on the Committee of Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa raised this issue for the second time on the floor of the House when he wanted to know why some six names have been missing from the list provided to the House.
According to him Act 463 section 11 has been complied with by providing the list of Ministers of state at the presidency.
He noted that appendix C page seven had six Ministers of state provided for 2019 fiscal year comparing it to that of 2018 there are some names missing from what had been submitted recently.
“They are Dr. Anthony Osei-Akoto, Professor George Gyan-Baffour, Mr. Daniel Kwaku Botwe, Mr. Ibrahim Mohamed Awal, Mr. Yaw Osarfo Marfo and Mrs. Mavis Hawa Koomson, the House is not aware of any reshuffle that has been done or resignation”.
He further added that as MPs they need correct data and if there is a correction to be made it should be made since the list is coming from the presidency the sanctity of the report should be protected.
