Akufo-Addo applauds resigned Minister Cecilia Dapaah for her loyalty to gov’t

The President of Ghana, H.E Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has accepted the resignation of Mrs. Cecilia Dapaah as the Minister for Sanitation and Water Resources.

The resigned Minister in a letter of resignation indicated that she has taken the decision because she does not want the conversation on the US$1 million, €300,000, and millions of Ghana cedis stolen from her home to affect the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP).

After receiving the resignation letter of Cecilia Dapaah, President Akufo-Addo said he applauds the loyalty of the former Sanitation Minister and wishes her the very best in her future endeavours.

“I have received your letter, dated Saturday, 22^ND July 2023, resigning from office as Minister for Sanitation and Water Resources and as a member of the Government.

“I am confident, like you, that, at the end of the day, your integrity, whilst in office, will be fully established. I wish you the very best in all your endeavours.”

“It is with considerable regret that I accept your resignation, and I applaud your loyalty to the image and standing of the government,” a letter from President Akufo-Addo accepting the resignation letter of the Minister said.

The President continued, “The work you undertook during your period in government was excellent and productive, and I thank you for your wholehearted contribution and devotion to the progress of the government and the nation.”
