The Presidency has explained the reasons behind the dismissal of Dr John Ofori-Tenkorang as the Director-General of the Social Security and National Insurance Trust (SSNIT).
In a statement on Saturday, April 13, the Director of Communications at the Presidency, Eugene Arhin, clarified that Dr Ofori-Tenkorang’s dismissal was not due to misconduct or malfeasance.
On Monday, April 8, President Akufo-Addo ended the tenure of Dr. Ofori Tenkorang as the Director-General of SSNIT. He was directed to transfer his responsibilities to Kofi Bosompem Osafo-Maafo by Monday, April 15.
