President John Dramani Mahama has announced his intention to significantly reduce the number of presidential staffers in his administration.
Speaking during his first State of the Nation Address (SONA) in his second term on Thursday, 27th February, in Parliament, he emphasised the need for a lean and efficient government to ensure prudent use of public resources.
According to President Mahama, previous administrations had seen a surge in the number of staff at the presidency, leading to unnecessary expenditure.
“We cannot continue to run a government where the cost of administration outweighs the benefits to the people. My government will take decisive steps to reduce the number of presidential staffers to promote efficiency and accountability,” he stated.
He further explained that the reduction would not compromise the effectiveness of governance but rather enhance productivity.
“A smaller, more competent team is what we need to drive our development agenda. We must cut down on bureaucracy and focus on delivering results that positively impact the lives of Ghanaians,” President Mahama assured.
