Minister for Trade, Industry, and Agribusiness Elizabeth Ofosu Adjare, has called on government appointees responsible for managing public funds to use them prudently and in ways that directly benefit citizens.
Speaking during a session of Parliament’s Local Government Committee, Madam Ofosu Adjare emphasized that accountability remains a cornerstone of the current NDC administration and urged Metropolitan, Municipal, and District Chief Executives (MMDCEs) to align their actions with the President’s vision for transparent and responsible governance.
She further encouraged MMDCEs to ensure equitable distribution of development projects across their jurisdictions to promote inclusive growth.
Meanwhile, some MMDCEs who appeared before the committee expressed concerns about their inability to access contract documents from the previous administration and funds that remain locked in various accounts.
