He urged the appointees to perform their duties diligently, assuring them of his support. “I wish all of you good luck in your duties, and I pledge to work with you in the future,” he added.
During the ceremony, President Mahama specifically addressed John Jinapor, the newly sworn-in Energy Minister, highlighting the critical role of his ministry. “To you, John Jinapor, Ghanaians are looking for a stable and efficient power supply,” the President said.
The swearing-in ceremony marked the official assumption of office for several key ministers, who are expected to deliver on their mandates to address the country’s pressing challenges.
