According to the Accra-based radio station, JOYFM, President Kufuor has asked the Ghana @50 Secretariat to close down following concerns that the organization of the jubilee celebrations were fraught with problems.
The Secretariat was expected to continue its activities to the end of the year, including a key role in the organization of the upcoming African Union Summit due to be held in July.
However President Kufuor is unsatisfied with the organization of the jubilee celebrations and has therefore asked that the secretariat wind down its operations.
The President’s directive comes in the wake of concerns raised by the public, including some government officials, about the manner in which the Secretariat handled the organization of the jubilee celebrations and its finances.
