UPDATE: The Presidency has debunked reports that it has released a list of Deputy Ministers who will in the coming days be vetted by the Appointments Committee to be part of Nana Akufo-Addo's second term government. According to the Communications Director at the Presidency, Eugene Arhin, a purported list put out by Ghana Guardian is fake and must be treated with contempt. He wrote on his Facebook page: "This list/report is completely FAKE, kindly disregard. The President has NOT released any list of Deputy Ministers. If and when he does, you’ll see it here first".
