Another Sad News Hits Ablakwa As Jinapor Calls On Mahama To Sack Him

According to a report by TV3 Ghana on Tuesday, October 27, 2026, Samuel Abdulai Jinapor, the Ranking Member of Parliament’s Foreign Affairs Committee, has called on President John Dramani Mahama to terminate the appointment of Foreign Affairs Minister Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa if he fails to resign voluntarily.

Jinapor insists that public office holders must be held accountable for their actions and that high standards must come with consequences. His comments have brought renewed attention to the ongoing concerns surrounding the Foreign Affairs Minister and the expectations placed on government officials.

The Minority’s position, as communicated by Jinapor, is that the President should take the necessary action if Ablakwa does not voluntarily step down from his position. The call places responsibility on President Mahama to decide whether the minister should continue to serve in his current role.

Jinapor’s remarks also highlight the importance of accountability in public service. According to the position he has expressed, appointments to public office should come with clear expectations, and officials should be prepared to face the consequences when questions arise about their conduct or performance.

The call for Ablakwa’s removal is a political development that could intensify discussions between the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) over standards in public administration.

However, the demand for the minister’s removal does not mean that President Mahama has agreed to terminate his appointment. The President’s response to the Minority’s call remains a separate matter.

For now, attention is focused on whether Ablakwa will respond to the latest demand and whether President Mahama will take any action following Jinapor’s comments.

The development adds to the political pressure surrounding the Foreign Affairs Minister as the Minority continues to demand accountability and insists that public office holders must be held to established standards.
