Greater Accra Regional Minister-designate, Linda Akweley Ocloo, made history by completing her vetting before the Parliamentary Appointments Committee in under 10 minutes on January 28, 2025.
In a swift and unprecedented session, no questions were posed to Ocloo, with Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin simply noting the strength of her delegation as evidence of her capability.
Committee Chairman Bernard Ahiafor quickly acknowledged her guests and discharged her from the proceedings.
Meanwhile, Defence Minister-nominee Dr. Omane Boamah endured a much longer and more intense vetting process, which lasted over four hours.
He was rigorously questioned on various topics, including national security, military readiness, and his plans for the Ghana Armed Forces.
Despite the exhaustive grilling, Dr. Boamah remained composed, offering detailed responses and reinforcing his dedication to enhancing Ghana’s defense capabilities.
