Senior broadcast journalist, Paul Adom-Otchere has described the President\u2019s delegation of other officials in his government to provide answers to certain questions asked at the media encounter on Tuesday as an exciting and positive move.<\/p>\n
President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo responded to a number of questions posed by journalists at the Flagstaff House on a wide range of issues including corruption, the economy and galamsey.<\/p>\n

Often they come and say they don\u2019t have anything to say at all,\u201d he said on Eyewitness News <\/strong>on Tuesday.<\/p>\n \u201cToday was different when he invited the Vice President [to answer questions] on two occasions. He also invited the Attorney General to deal with the controversial issues about State Attorneys and qualification to the Ghana Law School. That was a significant difference from what we\u2019ve seen in the past\u201d<\/p>\n
