The Deputy Minority Leader in , , has accused President of neglecting females in the appointment of Chief Executive Officers for the various state-owned institutions in the country.
According to the Deputy Minority Leader, who is also the Member of (MP) for Asokwa, the president has not only failed Ghanaian women in his appointments but has also failed to give adequate allocation to women from the northern part of the country, where the majority of his appointed CEOs hail from.
She added that the president's action violates the 1992 Constitution of Ghana, which provides for regional balance in appointments to such positions, and sets a dangerous precedent. "One of the reasons I'm sad is that a majority of people who have been chosen to be chief executives are from the north.
It is even more astonishing if you look at the Ashanti Region.
