A former Central Regional Minister, Kwamena Duncan, has criticised President over his appointments.

Duncan expressed his strong disapproval of the appointments made by Mahama so far, suggesting that they may lack seriousness.

Speaking on Peace FM's Kokrokoo on January 15, 2025, the (NPP) leading member expressed concern over the appointments being made in smaller batches instead of all at once, suggesting that this approach may be unacceptable. "… A certain indicator of seriousness is missing.

I don't see any seriousness in these types of appointments where they release appointments in smaller bits," he said.
