Mahama must stop the Northern appointments – Adei

| Professor Stephen Adei |
President John Mahama is appointing people from his area of origin into public offices, former rector of the Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration (GIMPA) Professor Stephen Adei has alleged.
According to the outspoken academician, his own research points to the fact that one out of every four public appointments made by the president hails from his area of birth.
“One of the things going on which is totally unacceptable is about why one out of every four public sector appointment comes from the President’s area of origin.
“That is totally unacceptable because we are a unified country, we are a country whereby if you take any major group, whether Gas, Ashantis or Ewes you can form a cabinet from it,” the former GIMPA boss told the gathering during the Prempeh Colleges’ Pearson Osae lectures in Accra.
Commenting on the Free SHS project being undertaken by the Mahama government, Prof. Adei said even though the initiative is good, it must be reconsidered to enable the beneficiary communities enjoy it fully.
“...You can’t build day schools in the village without teachers’ accommodation. You need smaller secondary schools with laboratories, teachers bungalows among others.
