Akufo-Addo Jabs Domelevo; Says Current Auditor General Has Done Things He Couldn’t Do Within A Short Time
President Akufo-Addo has touted the achievements of the acting Auditor-General, Mr. Johnson Akuamoah Asiedu as against the former auditor general, Daniel Yao Domelevo.
Speaking at a meeting with members of the Ghana National Anti-Corruption Coalition at the Jubilee House, the President said Mr. Johnson Akuamoah Asiedu in his short stay in office has been able to do things that the “most touted” Yao Domelevo couldn’t do.
He concluded that per these few achievements, his confirmation process will gather more public support.
“The Acting Auditor-General has demonstrated sufficient quality and independence of view. For instance, he is responsible for some things that are unheard of. In our history, the 12 statutory reports that have to be compiled and placed before Parliament in the year of Parliament, this is the first time it has ever been done.”
“Even the most touted Auditor General before him never managed to do it and this one has done it. I think on the basis of the work that he has done, the independence with which he has gone around with his work, if today efforts are made to confirm him, I believe it should be done, and that confirmation process will gather more public support.”
