The flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, has reaffirmed his commitment to establishing a lean yet efficient government by capping the number of ministers at 60.
He emphasized that not all NDC members will be appointed to serve in his government, as other individuals will be selected to oversee various sectors of the economy.
Launching the NDC’s Manifesto in Winneba, Central Region, on Saturday, August 24, the NDC’s flagbearer stated, “We will run the leanest but most efficient government under the Fourth Republic by
appointing not more than 60 ministers and deputy ministers in our bid to cut down on
government expenditure.”
He further explained that his administration will streamline government agencies by combining specific ministries and eliminating those that duplicate each other’s functions.
“We shall combine specific ministries and eliminate government agencies that duplicate each other.”
