Chairman of the 9th Council of State, Edward Doe-Adjaho has told members of the council to abandon their individual inclinations and infuse the wealth of their collective views as council members to guide their deliberations. He told the members that the Council is not justified in providing information, statements, or disseminate the contents of its advice and recommendation to a third party.
That is the underlying essence of their meetings in camera and oaths of secrecy, he said.
The former Speaker of Parliament added that where their engagements are to be in public, there is a burden of cautionary discretion that they ought to exercise. "May I kindly request that we respect these noble requirements and balance them with the needs of the state," he said In his welcome address at the orientation for members of the 9th Council of State held at Peduase Valley Resort on Monday 24th February 2025, he said "We all bring something special to this unique council and do have the responsibility to preserve our image and integrity.
Every team member must feel valued and appreciated for the unique qualities he or she brings to this council.
