President Akufo-Addo has implemented a series of changes in his government since Wednesday, February 14, including replacing and dismissing some ministers.
One of the recent changes involves swapping the Upper East and Upper West Regional Ministers.
In a statement issued by the Communications Director at the Presidency, Eugene Arhin, Hon. Stephen Yakubu, the Upper East Regional Minister, has been appointed as the new Upper West Regional Minister.
Conversely, Hafiz Bin Salih, the Upper West Regional Minister, has assumed the role of Upper East Regional Minister with immediate effect.
