Reduce size of your ministers, Kwaku Baako tells Akufo-Addo


Abdul-Malik Kwaku Baako, Editor-in-Chief of the New Crusading Guide newspaper, has called for a drastic reduction in the number of ministers in the next administration of President Akufo-Addo.

Speaking in an interview with Asaase News, Kwaku Baako argued that the president must critically look at downsizing the huge figures after serving his first term.

Eighty ministers

“The numbers must change, we have about 120 ministers now, the numbers must change, the foundation has been laid, I agree the vision determines what you want to do, and what you put in,” he said.

Baako added: “But obviously the second term, if I had the chance to advise or make an input relative to the president’s decision, I will tell him he should bring them down below maybe around 80”.
