Social media users react to Domelevo’s ‘forced’ retirement

Social media users have expressed mixed reactions regarding a decision by President Akufo-Addo on March 3, 2021, which retires the Auditor-General, Daniel Yaw Domelevo from office.

Mr Akufo-Addo’s directive was in connection to claims by the Audit Service Board indicating that Mr Domelevo had on June 2020 reached his retirement age.

However, taking to social media, some Ghanaians have described the President’s move as one that erodes the anti-corruption fight while others are of a different view.

The former Auditor-General had proceeded on a 167-day accumulated leave, only to return to be greeted by news of his ineligibility in the country’s workforce.
