Public Interest Advocate, Rodaline Imoru Ayarna, has defended the government's decision to terminate the employment of individuals hired after the December 7 elections.
According to her, the development is justifiable given Ghana's economic situation and governance history.
Speaking on Newsfile, she argued that such last-minute recruitments by an outgoing government raise serious concerns, particularly when the administration had eight years to create jobs but failed to do so. "As a Ghanaian, I would say that those employed are Ghanaians, but looking at the situation and the historical pattern of government transitions, I don't think it's unjustifiable.
Why would a government that had eight years to act suddenly flood agencies with new hires just before leaving office?" she questioned on Saturday, February 22, 2025.
