Former Chief Executive Officer for NEIP, Kofi Ofosu Nkansah has provided some clarity to the HR gap that has led to the suspension of the entire staff.

According to him, when he took over as Chief Executive Officer, there were human Resources gaps that they had to fill.

The reason was that NEIP had to qualify for World Bank Programmes and a lack of certain departments meant they would not qualify.

As a result, he explains that they created a procurement unit where temporary staff were employed and put on allowances.
