The Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) has released the full report of recommendations that led to the sacking of Adjenim Boateng Adjei, the Chief Executive Officer of the Public Procurement Authority (PPA).

Mr Adjei was sacked by President Akufo-Addo last Friday after CHRAJ found Boateng Adjei guilty of conflict of interest after a probe into the performance of his duties at the PPA.

He was captured in an investigate piece by freelance journalist Manasseh Azure Awuni and was subsequently suspended by President Akufo-Addo in 2019.

2. Consequent upon the above determination His Excellency the President of the Republic of Ghana, as the appointing authority of Respondent, should terminate the appointment of the Respondent as CEO of the PPA.’
