Replace Adwoa Safo - Gender Ministry needs leadership, Democratic Forum to Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo

 


 




Democratic forum has asked President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to urgently replace Adwoa Safo, who is Minister of Gender, as she has been continuously absent from her post for months.


The sector minister has been on leave for over a year. The Minister of Nursing (deputy), Mrs. Cecilia Abean Dapaah, was appointed by the President.

 

In a petition that was signed by Frank Amoakohene, executive director of the Democratic Forum, the group asks that the president make new appointments or confirm the vice president (deputy) as essential minister so that she can lead the ministry to achieve the stated vision of the ministry.


It is recalled that the Hon. Adwoa Safo's absence from parliamentary office and ministerial posts has been a source of public concern for months. It is unclear why the Minister has been removed from the public sphere and from her ministerial and legislative duties for so long.

The Privileges Committee has been contacted and is currently investigating the appropriate steps to restore the MP to her position as an MP.

 

However, the Democratic Forum believes that the leaders of the Ministry of Gender should not be left in the dark due to their absence from work.

Adwoa Safo has been out of the country since December 2021. Since the start of 2022, she has neglected her parliamentary duties and resigned as gender minister.
