There has been a call on the Chief Director of the Ministry of Health, Leopowura M.N.D. Jawula to resign his position for breaching the civil service code which bars civil servants from active partisan entering politics.He is accused of mounting a political platform in support of the ruling government.This was the views of majority of studio panel constituted on Adom Dwaso Nsem on Monday.The panel comprising Baba Jamal of the NDC, Kwabena Bomfeh of the CPP and Titus Glover of the NPP all called for the sack or the immediate resignation of the Chief Director of the ministry of health for mounting the platform at the NPP rally held at Kasoa on Sunday.They said that way, his decisions or utterances as the chief civil servant at the Health Ministry would not be needlessly politicized.Alhaji Jawula who is also a chief and whose name has been mentioned as a likely presidential running mate to the NPP flag-bearer was last Saturday introduced alongside other running mate hopefuls at the rally held at Kasoa in the Central region to introduce the NPP flag-bearer and elected parliamentary candidates of the party.Though the Constitution excludes certain public service officials such as those in the security services and civil servants from engaging in partisan politics, it is not quite clear on the position of public servants, like the CEO’s of certain state institutions.For example the chief executive officers of the COCOBOD, Isaac Osei and the Food and Drugs Board, Emmanuel Agyarko have been elected parliamentary candidates for their respective constituencies but are still holding on to their positions.Meanwhile The Head of the Civil Service, Joe Issachar, in an interview with the Ghanaians Times about a month ago cautioned all civil servants seeking political office to resign immediately in accordance with the Constitution and the services own code of conduct.He cautioned also that once they resign they can never be accepted back even when they have quit politics.Mr Issachar said apart from the Constitution which bars civil servants from contesting elections on political party tickets, section 12(1) of the civil service code specifically bars them from entering politics.Other categories of institutions whose members are barred from seeking political office include the Electoral Commission, police, the military and chiefs.Credit: Kojo Addo (Adom FM)
