Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin has criticised President John Mahama for what he calls the slow and piecemeal appointment of ministers to his cabinet.

This comes after the President, earlier today, nominated his first three Ministers-Designate: Dr Cassiel Ato Forson as Finance Minister, John Jinapor as Energy Minister, and Dr Dominic Ayine as Attorney General and Minister for Justice.

Speaking on the floor of Parliament, Mr Afenyo-Markin described the nominations as "tot tot" appointments, suggesting they fall short of expectations for a government that had pledged readiness to govern effectively from day one. "When the names were read out by Mr Speaker, only three names were mentioned.

This 'tot tot' appointment is unacceptable.
