Akufo-Addo petitioned to sack Ayisi Boateng

A petition has been sent to the Office of the President, Flagstaff House, for the removal of Ghana’s High Commissioner to South Africa George Ayisi Boateng.

The diplomat in a meeting with New Patriotic Party (NPP) students said his main priority is party supporters when it comes to providing jobs. The comment enraged most Ghanaians including the Minority who are calling for his head.

“Your Excellency, it is at the back ground of the above mentioned reasons that we are invoking your powers under chapter 8 of the 1992 constitution to relief Mr. George Ayisi Boateng of his post with immediate effect. To be very emphatic we demand of the above mentioned relief within five working days,” Pressure group Dynamic Youth Movement of Ghana (DYMOG), on Wednesday submitted in a petition to the Chief of Staff.

It added: “DYMOG is very confident that, the removal of Mr. Ayisi Boateng will whittle the growing public perception of Ghanaians on the insensitivity of government to issues of social cohesion, marginalization, vigilantism, political recklessness, shared prosperity and narrowing equal opportunity for all.”

Below is the full petition:
