The Minister for Energy and Green Transition, Dr. John Abdulai Jinapor, has issued a stern warning to heads of agencies and senior managers within the energy sector, making it clear that underperformance will not be tolerated and could lead to removal from office.
Speaking at the Ministry’s performance review retreat, Dr. Jinapor stressed that President John Dramani Mahama expects tangible results from public sector leaders. “Underperformance will not be tolerated. Heads of agencies and senior management who fail to meet agreed targets or deliver key projects will be removed,” the Minister declared.
Dr. Jinapor described public office as a privilege that demands discipline, professionalism, and accountability. He urged agency leaders to approach the retreat with renewed seriousness and commitment to achieving measurable outcomes. “This is not a threat; it is a call to seriousness, discipline and results-oriented leadership,” he emphasized.
Looking ahead to 2026, the Minister challenged agencies to shift from excessive planning to practical execution and to embrace strategies that are realistic, measurable, and aligned with national development priorities. “We must move from plans to execution, from excuses to solutions, and from fragmented efforts to unified action,” Dr. Jinapor stated.
According to the Ministry, the performance review retreat aims to assess progress, identify gaps, and strengthen coordination within the energy sector to advance Ghana’s economic growth and green transition agenda.
