All recruitment, payments have received statutory approval – Government Transition Team

The public has been advised by the government’s transition team to ignore any claims that the transition committee has chosen to assign the joint transition team responsibility for all ongoing payments and recruitment.

The Accra International Conference Centre hosted its second meeting on December 13, 2024, where it was resolved that any specific allegations of wrongdoing regarding individual payments or recruiting should be brought to the attention of the transition committee for decision-making.

It stated that the government’s term ended on January 6, 2025, at midnight, and that all hiring procedures and payments had been approved by the appropriate statutory bodies and had not been shown to be unlawful.

The government transition team’s spokesperson, Fatimatu Abubakar, made this announcement in a statement.

It reaffirmed the government’s commitment to a smooth transition before handing over power to the incoming administration on January 7, 2025.

“Kindly disregard any statements purporting to indicate that the Committee has taken a decision to the effect that all ongoing payments and recruitment should be referred to the transition team as same does not reflect the records of the meeting,” the message read.
