The Alliance for Footsoldiers Advocacy (AFFA), a volunteer group of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), has issued a call for the government to withdraw the appointment of Ken Ofori-Atta as the Senior Presidential Advisor and Special Envoy for International Finance and Private Sector Investments.
AFFA, in a statement, argued that Mr Ken Ofori-Atta is the only Finance Minister in the Fourth Republic who has faced public condemnation for his handling of the economy.
The group expressed concerns that appointing him to a new position amid the current economic challenges sends the wrong message to the Ghanaian electorate.
The statement from AFFA highlights the dissatisfaction among a segment of the population regarding Mr Ofori-Atta's past performance as Finance Minister.
The statement suggests that these sentiments are significant enough to warrant a reconsideration of his new appointment.
Below is the full statement:
