The Head of History and Political Science Department at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, (KNUST) Dr. Samuel Adu-Gyamfi has urged President Akufo-Addo to select experience and capable Ministers who have the willingness to work hard in support of his next administration.
Speaking in an interview on Accra based radio station, ahead of the impending ministerial appointments, Dr. Adu-Gyamfi asserted that the Ministers Akufo-Addo selected to his previous regime doesn’t help him because they were all family and friends hence he (Akufo-Addo) should be observant when appointing his second term ministers.
Dr. Adu-Gyamfi admitted that the maximum of the ministers who served in the erstwhile Akufo-Addo government failed to deliver, a situation he believed affected the president in the 2020 elections.
To him, he supports the quota system because of the kind of machismo and all the concepts available. There are good, wonderful, and experienced women who must be given opportunities in this government in the second term.
“The men and the boys have tried but couldn’t perform very well and that is why they have seen the kind of results they have witnessed,” he said.
“They should not tickle themselves, the performance of Akufo-Addo in the first term was quite abysmal because the expectation of the people was not met.
Akufo-Addo should go beyond friends, family, cronies, and bootlickers and begin to look at individuals who have the capacity and have spoken the truth in private and that will enable him to have complete attainment.
