Mahama set to unveil code of conduct for gov’t appointees today

President John Dramani Mahama is expected to unveil a new Code of Conduct for all government appointees later today, Monday, May 5, 2025.

This will mark a significant step in implementing his administration’s 120-day Social Contract.

The announcement was made by the Minister in Charge of Government Communications, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, in a Facebook post, on Sunday, May 4, 2025, where he described the week as a pivotal moment for the government’s reform agenda.

First announced during the swearing-in of ministers, the Code of Conduct is designed to establish clear ethical standards for public officials.

President Mahama emphasised that the code would spell out the dos and don’ts of public service, eliminating ambiguity and reinforcing the administration’s commitment to integrity.

The initiative is part of broader efforts to promote responsible governance and intensify the fight against corruption.

It is expected to serve as a framework for accountability and guide the conduct of appointees across various sectors of government.

“President Mahama enters an important week in which stock will be taken off the rollout of his 120-day Social contract.

“It begins with the unveiling of a strict Code of Conduct to regulate the activities of all appointees and ensure transparency and accountability in government,” the Facebook post read.
