Reports that Dr. John Ofori Tenkorang, the former director-general of the Social Security and National Insurance Trust (SSNIT), was removed from his position due to misconduct have been denied by the presidency.

Eugene Arhin, the Director of Communications at the Presidency, made it clear in a statement on Saturday, April 13, that Dr. Ofori-Tenkorang’s termination was not the result of misconduct or malfeasance.

On Monday, April 8, President Akufo-Addo ended the tenure of Dr. Ofori Tenkorang as the Director-General of SSNIT.

He was directed to transfer his responsibilities to Mr. Kofi Bosompem Osafo-Maafo, the Deputy Director-General for Investments by Monday, April 15.

Consequently, Mr. Osafo-Maafo was promoted to the position of Director-General for SSNIT.

 

 

Despite rumours suggesting that his dismissal was due to misconduct, the Presidency claims that Dr Ofori-Tenkorang’s departure is part of the ongoing restructuring initiated by President Akufo-Addo.

The Presidency further stated that President Akufo-Addo is pleased with Dr Ofori-Tenkorang’s performance, as the institution experienced significant transformation under his leadership.

“The President is satisfied with the performance of Dr Ofori-Tenkorang as Director-General of SSNIT in the past seven years, as the institution, under his watch, witnessed some impressive transformation. The President thanks him for his services to the nation,” the statement read.
