A Private Legal Practitioner, Austin Kwabena Brako-Powers, has called on President John Mahama to withdraw the membership of Bolga Central Member of Parliament (MP) Isaac Adongo from the Board of Bank of Ghana (BoG).
The lawyer explained that Mr Adongo's BoG Board membership would hamper Parliament's oversight responsibilities over the central bank. "If President John Dramani Mahama is truly committed to combating official corruption, he should end the practice of including Members of Parliament (MPs) on boards of state institutions.
This should be the way to go if we want to do something about corruption in this country," he said.
President Mahama announced a newly constituted 12-member Board of the Bank of Ghana on February 26, 2025.
