President Nana Akufo-Addo has appointed Chief Executive Officers and their deputies to serve at the three newly created development authorities that were passed into law in November 2017.
These three Development Authorities, the Coastal, Middle Belt and Northern Development Authorities, are tasked with the implementation of the Infrastructure for Poverty Eradication Programme (IPEP).
Heading the Coastal Development Authority as CEO is the Managing Director of Cit FM and Citi TV, Samuel Attah-Mensah.
A man with administrative experience, Joe Danquah, will be heading the Middle Belt Development Authority, whilst Alhaji Abdel-Majeed Haroun, an Agricultural Economist, will head the Northern Development Authority.
“The appointees are to act pending the receipt of the constitutionally required advice of the governing Boards of the Development Authorities, given in consultation with the Public Services Commission,” a statement from the presidency said.
The IPEP programme will oversee the disbursement of the equivalent of $1 million per constituency per year, in fulfillment of one of the New Patriotic Party’s major promises.
The project is also expected to have a direct link with government’s one district one factory project, which is estimated to cost GH¢456.3 million and create about 350,000 jobs

Your head is full of sand. Is it not because of incompetence of so many men appointed that that is why you need few competent men to do what many would mess up. Common sense tells you that a competent person can multi task. Waste, waste, waste all the way.
so the middle belt in which ashanti region is couldnt get chairman wontumi and nana obiri boahene as members, eiiii nana addo, hw3 yie oooh, seem you ok with 4 year term, well if you are, NPP isnt. what you doing is same like prez kufuo did in 2008, he was ok but NPP suffered. i keep on saying, for the safe keeping of your family members appointed including your children and you old age after power, is better to govern with true party members too and not only F&F bcx definately if the table God forbid turns, haaaado, you will every weeek be at court to suppport gabby, ken ofori attta, asante bediatuo etc bcx NDC will judge them and rem, spophia will be forced to resign and atuguba be in charge. a word to the wise is .....
If you need something to be done in a country where people have settled for mediocrity and incompetence, you need to put people directly in charge so they can deliver and you can hold them accountable. This is a big project with money, Nana is therefore qualified to have more hands on deck
This OLD man will definitely lead Ghana to a grave. What ***barred word*** appointments for boys . Citi FM ***barred word*** ATTA- MENSAH shd bow his head in shame
Are the CEOs going to build a skyscrapers for Satan that they need all these deputies? And all the clergy who said they needed wise leaders are sitting down watching this display of folly. If you need all these individuals, what else are the jobs of public servants and their directors. This nothing but job for the boys.
Hahaha! Nana addo, four deputies for this small job too. Even we are crying over 110 ministers. You need to sit up, you are being a mess.
Nana addo is just a completed deceit. How can you claim you are here to protect the public purse but keep appointing cronies and family as CEOs. I haven't heard it anywhere that a CEO has as much as three to four deputies. Owusu bempah has an appointment and now citi fm boss. This is the same man who accompanied the President to UN summit at tax payers expense. If anyone thinks nana addo has something good to offer the teeming unemployed youth he should revise his note. I can't trust the phony president who say one thing and do the opposite, it's very pathetic.
