President John Dramani Mahama will submit the final list of his ministerial nominees to the Speaker of Parliament on Monday, January 20, 2025, fulfilling his pledge to name his full cabinet within 14 days of taking office.

The President has reaffirmed his commitment to a lean government, limiting the number of ministers to no more than 60.

The final batch of nominees is expected to include appointments for key ministries such as Defence, Interior, Environment, Health, and Labour. Additionally, three Regional Ministers will be named in this final submission.

Meanwhile, the Communications Team at the Presidency has denied reports of a third batch of ministerial nominees. These reports, which included names of prominent National Democratic Congress (NDC) members, have been dismissed as “false and misleading.”

Among the names mentioned in the unverified reports were Rashid Pelpuo for Minister of Interior, Muntaka Mubarak for Minister of Transport, and Sam George, Member of Parliament for Ningo Prampram, for Minister-Designate of Communication, Digital Technology, and Innovation.

In a statement, the Office of the President clarified that no such nominations have been made and urged the public to disregard the misinformation. It emphasized that official announcements would be communicated only through authorized channels.

This submission marks the final step in assembling President Mahama's team as he prepares to implement his governance agenda with a streamlined and efficient administration.
