A typical example is the Minister of State for Public Procurement which many argue that Ghana has Public Procurement Authority that can oversee government procurement so that amounts to duplication. The question I am struggling with is this, was the Public Procurement Authority not in force when the past NDC government engaged in sole sourcing for the vast majority of all government projects? Let us give room for the changes in the governance structure and rather evaluate their impact some months later and if they are not useful we can all call and put pressure on the President to abolish that ministerial portfolio.
