Agenda 2024 is
determined to streamline the government bureaucracy by eliminating over 100
wasteful Ministers. Over the years the number of Ministers has grown
exponentially in Ghana. The growth in the number of Ministries under the ruling
parties of the NDC and NPP has not resulted in better or more efficient
services for the people of Ghana. They have resulted in a rapidly increasing
bureaucracy that provides high paying Ministry jobs to the family friends and
supporters of the ruling class.
The Agenda 2024 of the
Independent Candidacy of Mr. Kofi Koranteng for President calls for consolidating
all government Departments, Commissions and Agencies under the direction of ten
essential ministries. These ten Ministries would have a tighter control of
goals, budgets and more effectively working to completing their missions.
The savings from Minister and Assistant Minister Salaries along with the
elimination of Ex-Gratia payments would be dedicated to much needed rebuilding
projects for Ghana and its citizens.
Under an Independent
President Koranteng, 10 Ministers will be expected to work full-time to ensure
that the missions and objectives of their assignments are diligently fulfilled
on time and within budget. Each Ministry will be held accountable for every
Department, Commission and Agency under its executive guidance.
In proposed 20,30- and 50-year development plans that President
Koranteng and Agenda 2024 plan to propose and pass through Parliament,
Ministries will also be expected to work together on joint National
initiatives. The Ministries listed below are deemed vital and essential by
Candidate for President Koranteng and Agenda 2024.
