The former Communications Officer of the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Solomon Nkansah, has alleged that the government has employed some 25 personalities as government communicators at the Jubilee House who are doing nothing.
He said all the 25 who appear as guests on the various morning shows daily as government communicators draw salaries from the Chief of Staff’s office as political appointees.
Mr Nkansah raised this concern as a panellist on the discussion segment on the Ghana Yensom morning show hosted by Odeyeeba Kofi Essuman on Accra 100.5 FM on Tuesday, January 17, 2023, and noted that it forms part of the waste in the system.
“They [said 25 communicators] draw salaries as well as other allowances from the government chest.
“It is the reason this government has borrowed to the brim and has nothing to show for it,” he argued.
He further said that the government borrows to only pay recurrent expenditures.
