President-elect John Dramani Mahama has cautioned prospective appointees against seeking positions in his administration without a genuine commitment to public service.
Addressing a thanksgiving service at the Assemblies of God Church in Accra, Mr. Mahama emphasized the need for diligence, humility, and selflessness in governance.
“If you are not prepared to work and serve the people of Ghana diligently, with modesty and humility, then do not come. Just stay where you are,” he stated.
Reflecting on the recent election results, he described them as a powerful reminder that ultimate authority rests with the people, not the leaders.
“We have grown in arrogance and selfishness, forgetting that the power we wield is given by God temporarily. This should serve as a lesson for all of us entering government,” Mr. Mahama noted.
