Several presidential appointees and staffers have failed to declare their assets, in defiance of a directive issued by President , who had set a deadline of March 31, 2025, for all public officials under his administration to comply or risk removal from office.
The directive forms part of President Mahama's broader anti-corruption campaign aimed at promoting transparency, accountability, and responsible governance.
After publicly declaring his own assets, President Mahama called on all his appointees to follow suit, emphasising that asset declaration is a legal and ethical obligation, not a choice.
However, documents obtained by GhanaWeb indicate that some high-profile individuals within the current administration have yet to submit their mandatory asset declaration forms to the Auditor-General's Department, raising concerns about their commitment to good governance.
