A leading member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Henry Osei Akoto, has cast doubt on Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia's promise to appoint no more than 50 ministers and deputy ministers if he becomes president in 2025.

According to him, given the current number of people in the campaign and manifesto teams of the flagbearer, it would be hard for anyone to believe the vice president's proposal to run a government with only 50 ministers.

In a post on X, Henry Osei Akoto stated: "Campaign team members 41. Manifesto team members 319. 10 appointments per Constituency, making 2,750. Do you believe that Bawumia will appoint 50 ministers? The signs are on the wall."

The Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, stated on February 7, 2024, that he is committed to limiting the number of ministers and deputy ministers to no more than 50 under his presidency.

Highlighting the significance of efficient governance, Dr. Bawumia emphasised that a smaller ministerial team would facilitate streamlined decision-making processes.

Meanwhile, the NPP has appointed a campaign team of forty members to lead the flagbearer to victory in December 2024.

The party has also appointed others to form subcommittees to support the work of the flagbearer.

Ghana's leading digital news platform, GhanaWeb, in conjunction with the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital, is embarking on an aggressive campaign which is geared towards ensuring that parliament passes comprehensive legislation to guide organ harvesting, organ donation, and organ transplantation in the country.

You believe that Bawumia will appoint 50 ministers?

The signs are on the wall.
