Gov’t sets up committee to investigate and validate public sector appointments post-December 7, 2024- Labour Minister
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The Minister for Labour, Jobs and Employment, Dr. Rashid Pulpuo, has announced the establishment of a government committee tasked with investigating and validating the authenticity of public sector appointments made after December 7, 2024.

This initiative follows a directive from the Chief of Staff ordering the dismissal of all employees appointed after that date.

Dr. Pulpuo made the revelation while responding to a parliamentary question from Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo Markin during a session of the House.

The Minority Leader sought clarity on the number of public sector workers affected by the Chief of Staff’s directive.

“Mr. Speaker, pursuant to the directive issued by the Chief of Staff on behalf of the government, an intersectoral committee has been constituted to investigate, verify, and validate the authenticity or otherwise of appointments made in the public sector after December 7, 2024,” Dr. Pulpuo stated.

He emphasized that the committee’s work is ongoing and assured Parliament that an update on the number of Ghanaian youth impacted by the terminations would be provided once the validation process is complete.

When pressed further by the Minority Leader on reports that some state agencies had already issued termination letters to employees appointed after the cutoff date, Dr. Pulpuo responded cautiously.

“I have indicated that the Chief of Staff set up a committee to conduct investigations. We first need to verify the facts, ascertain the numbers involved, and determine the government’s course of action. We do not have definitive answers at this moment,” he explained.

The Minister added that credible evidence would be required before confirming any dismissals.

He also acknowledged the recurring nature of cyclical dismissals in the public sector, a practice that has persisted since 2008 through successive administrations, including those of former President Mills and President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.

“Mr. Speaker, with the report that will come, I am going to be one of the people who will say the government will come, but employees must stay in office. So, Mr. Speaker, we are just hoping that eventually, when the results come, we will come here to discuss it. I will call on the House so we can take a position on it.”
