CEO of the National Petroleum Authority (NPA), Godwin Edudzi Tameklo has called for a law to be enacted to stop outgoing governments from making major appointments and recruitments into the public service three months before an election.
To him, this is the surest way to deal with the challenges posed by last-minute recruitments by outgoing governments. "We need to reform what has been the practice or the norms over the period.
One way to do that is through legislation…Maybe we need to legislate and put it in the law that 3 months to an election there shouldn't be major decisions taken by way of contracts, employment or mass recruitment," he said on the Key Points on TV3 Saturday, February 15 while contributing to discussions on the termination of the last minute appointments done by the Akufo-Addo administration.
Concerns have been raised against the action of the government to revoke those appointments.
