Driver, spokespersons: The 3 close aides of Akufo-Addo aiming to enter Parliament

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo lost two close aides to Parliament after his first term in office.

The two, deputy Chiefs of Staff at the time, Abu Jinapor and Francis Asenso-Boakye will go on to secure their seats in parliament and be appointed as full ministers.

As he prepares to leave office after the 2024 elections, there are indications that three of his close aides might book their seats in the legislature if they win the 2024 parliamentary polls.

The most recent of his appointees to bid for a seat in Parliament is Joseph Addo, who has served as Akufo-Addo's personal driver for over two decades.

He has pledged to reclaim the seat for the NPP, emphasizing his roots within the community.

His deputy, Jefferson Sackey is also aiming for the Ablekuma Central seat.

The Ablekuma Central seat is currently being occupied by the National Democratic Congress’s Dan Abdul-Latif.
