Ahead of the vetting of ministers appointed by President Akufo-Addo, some social media users have expressed shock over some of the nominees.

For the new minister-designated for the Ministry of Fisheries, Hawa Koomson, her appointment seems to have come as a surprise to many Ghanaians following a shooting incident in her constituency prior to Election 2020.

Dear NDC MPs,

Should Hawa Koomson, Ursula Owusu, Ken Ofori Atta and Dominic Nitiwul sail through vetting, we will advise ourselves.

Sincerely,
EPD

Taking to Twitter, many expressed disappointment with the decision of the President to retain Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta.

Dear appointment committee, do not approve the Finance Minister designate Ken. Ofori-Atta. That guy is at the centre of Agyapa, PDS, AMERI etc....#JoySMS #JoyNews

If Ken Ofori Atta becomes finance minister again, by 2024, Ghana will be taking loans from DATA bank. #RejectKenOforiAtta#RejectTheThieves

Another appointment that has effused discontent among some Ghanaians is the appointment of Ursula Owusu, who has been maintained at the Ministry of Communications.

Madam Ursula owusu Kelvin GVG fraudulent star time plus her conduct on minntah Akandor

If the NDC MPs agrees for Ursula Owusu to become the communications minister again.... then we are not serious as a party I swear!

— Lazy Programmer♌ (@_quekuKetewa) January 22, 2021

I swear to God, if Ursula Owusu should pass the litmus test and is able to walk through the valley of our (NDC) anger on vetting day, we will all leave that party.

Minister-designate for National Security, Kan Dapaah is also being trolled.

The NDC MPs that are thinking of taking bribe from the Minister designates so as to rubber them should have a rethink. The grassroots are serious about their resolve concerning Ken Ofori atta, Hawa, Ursula, Nitiwul to some extent Kan Dapaah, Letsa, Amewu.

Kan Dapaah And Ken ofori Atta again..vetting should do us justice
