Chief of Staff unveils Presidential Delivery Unit to enforce accountability

Chief of Staff Julius Debrah has announced the establishment of a Presidential Delivery Unit at the Office of the President to closely monitor the implementation of government projects and campaign promises.

The unit, he explained, will conduct monthly assessments of key government targets, track progress, and ensure that appointees are held accountable for delivering on their mandates.

According to a report by myjoyonline.com on May 3, 2026, Debrah said the move is part of a broader strategy to strengthen governance and enhance efficiency in the public sector as the administration works to reset the economy.

“My duty is to ensure that every appointee under the government will work according to the wishes of the president,” he stated.

Government launches Performance Tracker

He noted that the Presidency will rely on regular performance reports to evaluate whether ministries, departments and agencies are meeting expectations.

“At the presidency, there is an office called the Presidential Delivery Unit, and I have to ensure that every month I look at the report to see if the president was able to meet all the targets,” he added.

Debrah also disclosed plans to engage directly with traditional authorities and opinion leaders nationwide to gather independent feedback on the performance of government officials.

“Soon, some persons from the presidency will come to you, the traditional leaders, to enquire of you the progress of the appointees within your jurisdiction,” he indicated.

According to him, the initiative aims to deepen accountability and ensure effective service delivery in line with President John Dramani Mahama's vision.
