President of think tank IMANI Africa, Franklin Cudjoe, has tasked President Nana Akufo-Addo to fire 15 ministers in his administration.

Mr Cudjoe who made the suggestion to President Akufo-Addo in the wake of the dismissal of Jose Mourinho as manager of English club Manchester United, indicated it was time for the President to reduce the size of his government.

“Nana Addo, see Man U has fired Jose before the end of the year? Fire at least 15 and reduce ministerial numbers from 111 to 80,” Mr Cudjoe stated in a Facebook post on Tuesday, 18 December 2018, shortly after the announcement of Manchester United’s decision to part ways with Mourinho.
