The Office of the President has ordered the revocation of all public sector appointments and recruitments made after December 7, 2024, citing non-compliance with established good governance practices.
In a directive issued on February 10, 2025, and signed by Chief of Staff Julius Debrah, all Heads of Government Institutions have been instructed to take immediate steps to annul such appointments and provide a comprehensive report on the actions taken by February 17, 2025.
According to the statement, these appointments and recruitments do not align with proper governance principles, particularly as they were made towards the end of the previous administration’s tenure.
The government’s decision is in line with its commitment to ensuring transparency and fairness in public service appointments. This move is expected to impact numerous appointments made within the specified period across various government institutions.
The directive calls for full cooperation from institutional heads to ensure compliance with the revocation order.
It remains to be seen how affected individuals and institutions will respond to the decision.
