The Minority Caucus in Parliament has accused the government of incompetence and weak coordination across key state institutions, arguing that the administration has struggled to effectively manage its ministries and agencies about 18 months into its tenure.
The criticism was raised on the floor of Parliament on Wednesday, June 10, during discussions on governance, public sector management, and the overall performance of the administration.
According to the Minority, internal disagreements and operational inefficiencies within government institutions have exposed leadership gaps, with consequences for public service delivery and national development.
Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin said the government appears to have lost control of key sectors such as education and public sector recruitment, claiming that institutional conflicts are slowing down decision-making processes.
He argued that the situation reflects broader governance challenges and an inability by the administration to properly supervise its agencies and departments.
“You cannot even recruit teachers who are qualified. It has become a fight between the Finance Ministry and the Education Ministry. This government is not in control of its own departments and agencies. In just one and a half years, you have lost control of the ship,” he said.
“We have heard some ministers have taken awards and are alleging certain things we don’t know about. This is a government that has lost control. It cannot even take care of its 189 MPs,” Afenyo-Markin added.
