The Member of Parliament for North Tongu, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has expressed confidence that the recent reshuffle in the Akufo-Addo administration will not bring about the desired changes, stating firmly that “the ship has already gone under.”
As part of this reshuffle, the Minister of Finance, Ken Ofori-Atta, was relieved of his duties and replaced by Karaga MP Mohammed Amin. Other notable figures, including the Minister for Health, Kwaku Agyemang Manu, Information Minister Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, and the Greater Accra Regional Minister Henry Quartey, have also been removed from their positions.
In a statement on platform X, Mr. Ablakwa expressed his belief that these changes will bring about no substantial alterations in the political landscape over the next nine months.
“A belated reshuffle after the ship has sunk and after the horses have bolted. Obviously, nothing will change in the next 9 months,” he added.
Furthermore, he indicated that Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta will face accountability for his decisions if the National Democratic Congress (NDC) emerges victorious in the upcoming general elections.
Mr Ablakwa emphasized that, when the right moment arises, Ken Ofori-Atta will be held responsible for the unauthorized withdrawal of US$58 million for the National Cathedral project.

“As for Ken Ofori-Atta — at the right time he will answer for his US$58million illegal withdrawal for Akufo-Addo’s scandalous US$450million cathedral, the US$100million dubious SML contract & all the other atrocities.
“The day of reckoning is coming,” Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa said.
