The Ministry of Food and Agriculture has been temporarily placed under the direction of Minister of Fisheries and Aquaculture Development Mavis Hawa Koomson.
This comes after President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo accepted Dr. Owusu Afriyie Akoto’s resignation.
On January 10, Dr. Afriyie Akoto, who had worked at the Ministry for six years, announced his resignation.
President Akufo-Addo then assigned Madam Hawa Koomson “to operate as caretaker Minister at the Ministry of Food and Agriculture until a permanent successor is made,” according to Eugene Arhin, Director of Communications at the Presidency.
