The recent appointment of Dr. Mohammed Amin Adam as the new Finance Minister by President Akufo-Addo has received praise from the senior partner and co-founder of Africa Legal Associates (ALA), Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko.
Otchere-Darko described Dr. Amin Adam as both humble and competent, making him a suitable successor to his former boss, Ken Ofori-Atta. In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Mr Otchere-Darko emphasized that President Akufo-Addo’s choice could not have been better for the Finance Ministry, suggesting strong approval from the public.
President Akufo-Addo nominated Dr. Mohammed Amin Adam as the new Finance Minister, replacing Ken Ofori-Atta, who served in the position for seven years. The announcement came as part of the latest ministerial reshuffle released by President Akufo-Addo on Wednesday, February 14th.
Despite significant challenges and calls for his dismissal from some members of Ghana’s Parliament, Ken Ofori-Atta served as Ghana’s longest-serving finance minister. However, President Akufo-Addo rejected these calls for resignation, urging Parliament to wait until discussions with the IMF concluded.
These changes in leadership at the Finance Ministry have sparked interest and curiosity among Ghanaians, as the country grapples with economic challenges. The public will be closely watching the performance of Dr. Mohammed Amin Adam as he assumes his new role as Finance Minister.
