Partisan appointment cycle will persist without meaningful reforms – Osae-Kwapong

His concern was the discomfort surrounding publicly partisan figures entering an independent institution while it was struggling to secure public confidence.

CDD-Ghana Fellow, Dr John Osae-Kwapong, has warned that partisan appointments to independent constitutional bodies will persist unless meaningful institutional reforms break the cycle.“Both parties - NDC and NPP - have had opportunities to express a view about openly partisan persons being appointed to certain institutions, but we see this cycle being repeated, through the rotation and election turnovers.”
