The Member of Parliament for Old Tafo, Vincent Ekow Assafuah, has announced plans to take legal action against the government over what he describes as the autocratic dismissals of individuals appointed into the public service after December 7, 2024.
Mr. Assafuah asserts that approximately 60 complaints have been filed by individuals affected by the government’s directive.
In an interaction with journalists, he noted that these appointments were legally made by the previous administration and that the dismissals constitute political victimization.
He called on all affected persons to come forward as he prepared to challenge the dismissals in court.
Vincent Ekow Assafuah’s decision to take legal action against the government follows the Chief of Staff Julius Debrah’s directive to annul all appointments and recruitments made into the Public Services after December 7, 2024.
According to the Chief of Staff, the appointments did not comply with established good governance practices and principles.
He further instructed all heads of government institutions to take immediate steps to nullify such appointments and recruitments and submit a comprehensive report on the actions taken by February 17, 2025.
