  BREAKING NEWS!!!!!!!!!
  PUBLIC ACCOUNTS COMMITTEE( PAC)
  Rethinking Political Appointments and Meritocracy in Ghana
  
  I was born and educated in Ghana, but I now live and work in the United Kingdom. Over the years, I have often compared the political landscape in Ghana with that of the UK. Initially, I believed that Ghanaian politicians lacked the depth of political education and institutional understanding that their UK counterparts demonstrated.
  
  However, my perception began to change after closely following the proceedings of the Public Accounts Committee (PAC). While the live televised sessions were, at times, chaotic and revealing, they also exposed the reality of Ghana’s governance system—why progress has been slow and why accountability remains a challenge.
  
  One critical question continues to trouble me: must everything in Ghana be politicized?
  
  Across the nation, far too many key public positions—District Chief Executives (DCEs), Municipal Chief Executives (MCEs), and even auditors—are filled based on political loyalty rather than competence or qualification. This practice undermines the professionalism of our institutions and erodes public trust. When appointments are driven by partisanship instead of merit, inefficiency becomes inevitable, and development suffers.
  
  Ghana has no shortage of intelligent, capable, and dedicated professionals. Yet, our system often sidelines them in favor of those who are “politically correct.” The result is a governance structure that struggles to deliver—not because we lack talent, but because we fail to use the right people for the right jobs.
  
  If we are truly committed to national development, we must embrace meritocracy, accountability, and integrity as the foundations of public service. Political parties should see competence as an asset—not a threat. Only by valuing skill and experience over party loyalty can Ghana unlock its true potential and move toward the development we all desire.
  
  It is time we put Ghana first, above politics.
  Let us demand better leadership, merit-based governance, and a public service that rewards competence—not connections.

  Until the Judiciary is completely "sanctified" and made to function with efficiency, effectiveness, assertiveness and determination commensurate with what transpires in the West, all our resolve to see a prosperous, corruption-free state is doomed to failure.
