“Our decision on Auditor General still stand”, Office of Presidency responce to Petitioners

The Office of the presidency has responded to the pertitioners calling for the recall of the auditor general, Daniel Domelevo after the president asked him to proceed on his 167 days of leave.

According the release, the pertitioners are expected to refer to the content of the presidency statement on 3 July 2020.

The Office of the President has extended the leave period of the Auditor-General, Daniel Domelevo from 123 days to 167 effective July 1, 2020.

This comes in the wake of concerns raised by the A-G over the directive to take his accumulated leave because his work, according to him, is embarrasing the government.

A letter by Mr Domelevo dated July 3, 2020, outlined a series of reasons why he believes the directive leaves much to be desired including what he described as bad faith on the part of the Presidency.”

In a response from Secretary to the President, Nana Asante Bediatuo, the move was undertaken in consideration of the year 2020 which was excluded from the earlier directive which only spanned 2017 to 2019.
