Former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta has called on staff at the Ministry to support his successor, Dr. Mohammed Amin Adam.
According to the immediate past Minister, his successor is a “smart, humble and inclusive leader” thus the need to rally behind him to succeed at the post.
In a statement, he said: “The future is here with us as we are blessed with a new leader, Dr Mohammed Amin Adam, who replaced the venerable Charles Adu Boahen and has been with us through some of the most difficult times. Let us all circle the wagons and ensure a blazing success for his stewardship.
“We all know him as a smart, humble, and inclusive leader. Let me state with all humility that nothing would honour me and the ‘Office of the Minister’ more than for you to work with renewed diligence to guide Hon. Amin and our nation to the successful execution of the IMF-ECF programme to promote economic growth and transformation,” he stated.
He thanked all for the support during his term in office.
“Once again, I thank you for your tireless service and commitment to excellence. It has been my utmost honour and a rare privilege to serve alongside each, and every one of you. I pray that you continue to be resolute, dedicated, unwavering and committed to the work of the Republic and care for the finances of the State.”
Ken Ofori-Atta was relieved of his portfolio in government by President Akufo-Addo in the recent ministerial reshuffle, replacing him with Minister of State at the Finance Ministry, Dr Amin Adam.
