The newly appointed Registrar of the Births and Deaths Registry, Samuel Adom Botchway, is set to be reassigned following concerns raised by the Civil and Local Government Staff Association of Ghana (CLOGSAG) about his appointment.
CLOGSAG had threatened to begin a nationwide strike next Thursday, claiming that Mr Botchway was a politically exposed person, which made his appointment unacceptable.
As a result, the government has moved swiftly to address the matter. The Minister of State for Government Communications, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, said the issue has been resolved and the planned strike will no longer take place.
He confirmed that Mr Botchway will be reassigned to a different role, adding that the government, led by President John Mahama, remains committed to listening to the concerns of citizens as it works to reset the country.
