An emotionally charged President Akufo-Addo told the gathering he was pained by the fact that the two gentlemen were some of his most loyal appointees who have been with him through thick and thin even when the ruling New Patriotic Party was in opposition.

He cautioned all government appointees to be mindful of their actions and revert to their respective boards when they encounter challenges in the discharge of their duties.

The president warned that he will not shield any appointee who finds him or herself in situations that are contrary to laid down procedures in the public sector.
