The Minority Caucus has raised serious concerns over what it described as partisan governance practices, including mass dismissals of public servants, selective prosecution and discrimination in contractor payments.

The concerns were outlined in a press statement signed by the Minority Chief Whip, Frank Annoh-Dompreh, after a meeting with President John Dramani Mahama on Monday, December 22, 2025.

According to the statement, the Caucus expressed “profound concern” over the dismissal of approximately 2,802 public servants through directives from the Office of the Chief of Staff, describing the action as “a direct assault on the constitutional principle of an independent and professional civil service”.

The Minority referenced Ghana Statistical Service data indicating that about 1.3 million young people are unemployed, urging the President to immediately halt the dismissals and institute a fair, transparent review process.

“Ghana’s civil service must serve the state, not any governing party,” the statement stressed.

On justice delivery, the statement accused the government of selective investigations and the imposition of punitive bail conditions on New Patriotic Party (NPP) officials, while cases involving former National Democratic Congress (NDC) officials are discontinued through the filing of nolle prosequi.

The Caucus also alleged partisan discrimination in contractor payments, warning that denying payments to contractors perceived to be NPP-leaning is “weaponising the economy, destroying jobs and pushing viable businesses towards collapse.”
