Speculation is rife within political circles as rumors swirl about an imminent reshuffle in President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s administration, marking a potentially significant development since he took office in 2017.
Multiple media outlets have been abuzz with conjecture, suggesting that several key cabinet ministers may be in line for new portfolios, while others could be on the verge of departing from the government following the conclusion of the party’s parliamentary primaries.
A recent tweet by Muftawu Nabila Abdulai of Joy FM has added fuel to the fire, hinting at potential changes on the horizon. According to Abdulai’s tweet, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, initially slated to replace Mustapha Ussif as Sports Minister, has reportedly been earmarked for the Works and Housing Ministry role, introducing a new twist to the unfolding narrative.
Furthermore, there are indications that Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta might finally step down from his position, with Mohammed Amin rumored to be his potential successor. This speculation has garnered considerable attention, as Ofori-Atta has been a central figure in shaping Ghana’s economic policies in recent years.
In another notable development, Okoe Boye is said to be on the brink of assuming significant responsibilities within the Health Ministry, signaling potential shifts in key areas of governance.
Meanwhile, recent upheavals in local governance have added to the atmosphere of uncertainty, as 24 Metropolitan, Municipal, and District Chief Executives (MMDCEs) were abruptly sacked last week, with 26 others swiftly appointed to fill the vacated positions. This sudden administrative reshuffling has further fueled speculation about broader changes within the government’s ranks.
As the nation awaits official confirmation and clarity from the presidency, the swirling rumors and conjecture surrounding the potential cabinet reshuffle continue to dominate political discourse.
