Ebenezer Ahumah Djietror<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ebenezer Ahumah Djietror has been appointed as the new Clerk to Parliament, following an extraordinary meeting of the Parliamentary Service Board in November 2024.<\/p>\n

His appointment comes as the current Clerk, Cyril Kwabena Oteng Nsiah, approaches the compulsory retirement age of 60 on February 2, 2025.<\/p>\n

The Speaker of Parliament, Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin, who is also the Chairman of the Parliamentary Service Board, has issued an appointment letter to Mr. Djietror.<\/p>\n

This is to allow him to assume his new role starting January 1, 2025.<\/p>\n

To facilitate the transition, Mr. Oteng Nsiah has been directed to proceed on annual leave effective December 31, 2024.<\/p>\n

Extensive Experience<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mr. Djietror, an experienced lawyer and procedural expert, is among the longest-serving clerks in Parliament.<\/p>\n

He has served as Clerk-at-the-Table and Clerk to several key parliamentary committees, including the Committee on Constitutional, Legal and Parliamentary Affairs; Business Committee; Committee on Judiciary; and Committee on Foreign Affairs.<\/p>\n

His vast experience and procedural knowledge are expected to enable him to handle his new responsibilities seamlessly.<\/p>\n

New Role<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mr. Djietror\u2019s appointment comes at a critical time, as he will oversee the swearing-in of Members of Parliament-elect and the election of the Speaker for the 9th<\/sup> Parliament on January 7, 2025.<\/p>\n

His expertise as a procedural clerk positions him to manage the proceedings without difficulty.<\/p>\n

His appointment will be formally announced to MPs before the House adjourns for the Christmas holidays.<\/p>\n
