Some member of the ruling (NDC), mainly the grassroots of the party, have expressed their frustration after reports of the appointment of Rosemond Obeng, a former aide of former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, as a senior presidential staffer emerged.

Following the reports, a video of Rosemond Obeng announcing her appointment in Mahama's government has popped up.

The former aide to Dr Bawumia, the presidential candidate of the opposition (NPP) for the 2024 Election, who jumped ship to join the NDC in the run-up to the election, confirmed her new role in the government.

Rosemond Obeng, who was representing the Minister of State in charge of Government Communication, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, at a school programme, said that she was now an aide at the Office of the President. "I am singularly honoured to share in this special moment with you all here today at North Hills International School at the 6th Annual Speech and Prize-Giving Day. "As the lady introduced me already as a representative from the Office of the President, in my capacity as a presidential aide, I bring you warmest greetings from Honourable Felix Kwakye Ofosu.
