60 Ministers will not help your political course - Minority Leader Afenyo-Markin to Mahama

The Minority Leader, Afenyo-Markin, has criticized the decision to appoint 60 ministers, arguing that such a move will not benefit the government politically. He emphasized that an overly large ministerial team creates the perception of excessive government expenditure, which may alienate the public and erode trust in leadership.

Afenyo-Markin highlighted the importance of efficiency and accountability in governance, suggesting that a leaner team could deliver more impactful results.

According to him, the government should prioritize resource management and focus on addressing pressing national issues, rather than expanding the size of its administration.

This criticism comes amid growing concerns about the fiscal responsibility of the government, particularly in light of economic challenges faced by the country. The Minority Leader’s remarks reflect a broader call for a more prudent and people-centered approach to governance.
