Finance Ministry needs ‘refresher course’ in own records over GES recruitment – Adutwum’s spokesperson
A financial clearance letter issued by the Ministry of Finance on May 10, 2024, granted approval to the Minister for Education to enable the Ghana Education Service to recruit 2,000 graduate teachers to augment the staffing strength of the Service.
The spokesperson for former Education Minister Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum has challenged the Ministry of Finance's claim that thousands of Ghana Education Service (GES) staff were recruited in 2024 without financial clearance.
The Ministry of Finance had stated that the government inherited 6,300 GES staff in 2025 who had been recruited in 2024 without financial clearance.
