The Minority Leader and MP for Tamale South, Hon Haruna Iddrisu has urged President Nana Akufo Addo to comply with Article 89 ( 2 ) of the Constitution which enjoins the President to appoint some qualified category of persons to the Council of State in consultation with Parliament.
These include one person who has served as Chief Justice, one person who has once served as Chief of Defence Staff of the Ghana Armed Forces, and one person who has once served as Inspector General of Police, according to article 89 ( 2) of the Constitution.
Hon Haruna Iddrisu is unhappy that sometimes such appointments are made by the President and published by the media without the knowledge of Parliament and said such practice must stop.
