Even though appointments of new Ministers are yet to be officially announced by the presidency, close sources have come out with list of ministers and their ministerial position following the re-election of Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.

Names like Mustapha Yussif, who was the National Service Secretariat Executive Director, will be heading the Sports Ministry which was held by Isaac Asiamah.

Also Deputy Minister for Education will be heading the Education Ministry while the former Education Minister, Matthew Opoku-Prempeh, will be heading the Ministry of Energy which was initially held by Peter Amewu.

Meanwhile, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has asked all Metropolitan, Municipal and District Chief executives who were in office before his inauguration to continue to stay in office until further notice.

In a statement signed by the Chief of Staff, the President however instructed the Chief Executives to desist from taking policy decisions.
