The immediate past Auditor-General Daniel Domelevo has revealed that the then-President-elect Nana Akufo-Addo influenced him to accept the Auditor-General position when President John Dramani Mahama appointed him in 2016 during his time of leaving office as Ghana President.
“in 2016 when I was appointed, and I was confused as to whether I should accept or reject it, a call came through from Dr. Matthew Opoku Premeph and after greeting him, he said, ‘hold on for the then President-elect’. So, Nana Addo Danquah Akufo-Addo encouraged me, he said, ‘Go and take the job’. That is why I am very grateful to him,”
Mr. Domelevo made the shocking revelation during his Thanksgiving Mass at the Christ The King Catholic Church in Accra on Wednesday to mark the end of his embattled service to the nation.
According to him, his relationship with President Akufo-Addo has been very cordial since then and he was grateful to him for his support.
“We are here to thank God and we are here to do that irrespective of what has happened. I would like to thank former President John Mahama who appointed me as the Auditor-General of Ghana. I thank him for the opportunity to serve my motherland. I would also like to thank President Nana Akufo-Addo for working with me.” He added
The former Auditor General Domelevo was ordered by President Akufo-Addo to go retirement because records made available to the latter by the Board of the Audit Service indicated that he, Domelevo, had passed the retirement age of 60 years.
