The government has revoked the appointment of Kofi Bosompem Osafo-Maafo as Director-General of the Social Security and National Insurance Trust (SSNIT).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nsemgh sources confirm that the contracts of his three deputies have also been terminated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The three deputies are, Kwame Adu-Darkwa, Deputy Director-General, Finance and Administration, Ms. Juliana Kpedekpo, Deputy Director-General, Operations and Benefits as well as Nana Serwah Bonsu Amoako, Deputy Director-General, Investment and Development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, no official replacements have been named as the President is yet to appoint a new Director General and deputies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In April 2024, then President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo terminated the appointment of Dr. John Ofori Tenkorang as the Director-General of SSNIT and replaced him with Kofi Bosompem Osafo-Maafo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kofi Bosompem Osafo-Maafo is the son of Yaw Osafo-Maafo \u2013 a political figure and former Presidential Advisor in the erstwhile Nana Akufo-Addo administration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dr. Ofori Tenkorang\u2019s removal saw his then Deputy Director-General in charge of Finance and Administration \u2013 Michael Addo, resigning with immediate effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Osafo-Maafo\u2019s appointment also saw Pearl Nana Ama Darko, formerly the Deputy Director-General for Operations and Benefits, reassigned to the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) as Commissioner for Support Services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She was then replaced by the outgoing Deputy Director General in charge of Operations and Benefits, Juliana Kpedekpo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
President John Dramani Mahama is expected to announce fresh names to fill the positions in the coming days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
