Mahama Transition Team Vows to Reverse Last-Minute Recruitment, Payments by Outgoing Administration

The team, co-chaired by former Chief of Staff Julius Debrah, has therefore vowed to reverse all of those decisions when Mahama takes office on January 7.

The Transition Team of President-elect John Mahama has raised concerns over ongoing last-minute recruitments, payments, and administrative decisions by the outgoing New Patriotic Party (NPP) government.

This comes after an agreement was reached during the second meeting of the joint Transition Team on Friday, December 13, 2024, where it was decided that such actions would require clearance from the joint team.

In a statement released on Tuesday, December 17, the Transition Team accused the outgoing administration of violating the agreement by proceeding with these activities without consulting the team.

The team, co-chaired by former Chief of Staff Julius Debrah, has therefore vowed to reverse all of those decisions when Mahama takes office on January 7.

“The Transition Team of the President-elect wishes to state emphatically, that given the bad faith displayed by the government, all these payments, recruitments, transfers and promotions, some of which have been backdated, will be reversed,” the statement read.
